Surface topography optical measuring system and surface topography optical measuring method

Abstract

A surface topography optical measuring system including image capture modules, a control module and a computation module is provided. Each image capture module includes an electronically controlled focal length tunable lens, an optical assembly and an image sensor, wherein the image capture modules respectively capture images at different heights between a lowest and a highest surfaces of an object. The control module is coupled to the image capture modules to independently control the image capture modules. The computation module is coupled to the control module and the image sensor of each image capture module, wherein the computation module perform calibration of the surface topography optical measuring system and assesses in-focused pixels in the captured images to measure a height difference between a highest and a lowest surfaces of the object or between any surfaces of interest of the object. A surface topography optical measuring method is also provided.
