ACCUplace Position Grid
AP-P Series
The AP-P is a unique calibration target that is designed to test the position and/or recognition ability of a vision system. The matrix of small scales, precisely positioned in a grid matrix format, makes testing for subject recognition and system positioning simple.The overall target is comprised of a matrix consisting of 6.0mm x 6.0mm square individual components each having a 5.0mm x 5.0mm X & Y Scale with 0.100 divisions. The scale has pitch accuracy of 1μm. The AP-P is available on two standard materials; Chrome on Glass (CG) and Chrome on Opal (OP).

USAF Targets
These targets conform to MIL-STD-150A. Frequencies change by the 6th root of 2. This target is also available in custom sizes and contrasts. This test target meets requirements as specified in MIL-STD-150A for resolving power tests. The target consists of a series of Elements having two sets of lines at right angles. Each set of lines consists of three lines separated by spaces equal to the line width. Each bar has a length to width ratio of 5:1. (Line width is equal to one half of line pitch, which is the inverse of line frequency.) Elements are arranged in groups of six each and Groups are arranged in pairs. Even numbered Groups occupy the left side and bottom right corner and contain a square feature having and edge length equal to the line length of Element 2 in that group. Odd numbered Groups occupy the top right corner and side. Groups and Elements are labeled and differentiated by numbering adjacent to their features. Frequencies in cycles/mm (c/mm) increase between each Element by the sixth root of two (approximately 12.25% per step). The general formula for the line frequency of any target Element can be expressed as 2Group+(Element-1)/6.

Image Analysis & Stage Micrometers
The APPLIED IMAGE series of Image Analysis and Stage micrometers are ideally suited for calibrating optical, imaging, video, and reticle-based measurement systems. Designed for ease of use and manufactured for durability, the SM Series has both English and Metric scales in one or two axis configurations. Both types of micrometers come with NIST traceable calibration standards and are available on multiples substrates to perfectly fit your needs. The experience APPLIED IMAGE has in manufacturing precision imaged optical components makes us the trusted source for standards for magnification system microscopy and vision applications. Should you need to alter feature patterns, size, or substrate, fill out our Custom Optical Components and Standards form to start the conversation.

SINE Sinusoidal Vision Demonstration Array
The Sinusoidal Visual Demonstration Array is designed to demonstrate the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) of the human eye. Its transmittance varies sinusoidally and increases in spatial frequency from 0.2 to 20 c/mm, following a logrithmic scale. The modulation increases linearly from top to bottom. One can see, in the image, where the visual contrast contour disappears which is the MTF of the eye. Ideally suited for teaching and demonstration, the Array is available on film mounted in glass (-G), or mounted in a 2″x 2″ projection slide.(-SL)

ACCUplace Dot Patterns
AP-D Series
All machine vision lenses will show some type of distortion. Minimizing or correcting that distortion is crucial in most applications. The ACCUplace Dot Patterns target is designed to check, verify, or quantify barrel distortion in vision systems, alignment between multiple optical systems, and can calibrate instruments with both vision and motion systems. The indexed columns and rows of dot features provide reference points that make alignment and distortion detection simple and straightforward. The AP-D is offered on four standard materials; Glass (CG) Opal (OP) Photopaper (RM) and Film (TM).
