Abstract

This paper has the purpose of presenting a study to determine the accuracy of a method for image measurement called Null Detector. In this new method, instead of determining the distance between two borders by counting pixels or by using subpixel approximations, the image itself is shifted and the border of the object to be measured is acquired in different points of the image. By using numerical adjustments for a specific point of the image, the real location for the border is found. The advantage of this method is that the pixel length does not need to be calibrated since it does not involve counting pixels.
