  2. P09701—Corning Tropel LightGage™ Metrology System Background: “Corning’s LightGage™ system is an advanced, full surface interferometer for measuring flatness, parallelism and depth” 2 mjb8482@rit.edu

  3. P09701—Corning Tropel LightGage™ Metrology System P09701 In other words: (Tunable Laser) + (Infrared Camera) + (Math Algorithms) = 3 mjb8482@rit.edu

  4. P09701—Corning Tropel LightGage™ Metrology System P09701 The Problem: The 1st generation LightGage™ only measures one side of a part… (Corning is also looking for engineers to hire) …Corning Tropel wants it to measure both sides… SO THEY GAVE IT TO US  …but their engineers couldn’t figure out how to do it! 4 mjb8482@rit.edu

  5. P09701—Corning Tropel LightGage™ Metrology System Master System Controller Controller (PC) Sensor Source Unit Parts Handling Sensor Our Task: Design, build and test a working prototype of the 2nd generation LightGage™ system. 5 mjb8482@rit.edu

  6. P09701—Corning Tropel LightGage™ Metrology System Looks easy, doesn’t it? - Complete vibration isolation - Isolation from ambient temperature changes - Completely automated, motorized - Sensor must move to within < 1mm of top surface of part, every time - Must accurately measure part in under a minute - Anybody can use it Remember, Corning engineers couldn’t make it work. 6 mjb8482@rit.edu

  7. P09701—Corning Tropel LightGage™ Metrology System Looking for engineers interested in: - Photonics/optics - Electronics, systems integration - Data acquisition, programming - Thermal analysis - Ergonomics, user interfacing - Mechanical design - Laser! interferometry - Getting a job 7 mjb8482@rit.edu
