The Scatter Mode
The C5-2040-SCT-GigE is a customized firmware of the C5-2040-GigE featuring 3D profile
scan by means of FIR PEAK algorithm and output of laser scatter data.
The different behavior of the scattering of light on the object surface can highlight various
features that would be hard to detect in a normal grayscale image.
The scatter component can output the direct scatter which is the sum of intensities
around the PEAK position and the left or right scatter component which are the sum of
intensities left and right to the PEAK point.
The left and right scatter feature have two adjustable parameters. First the Left Scatter
Width / Right Scatter Width to set the number of rows which will sum together and second
the Left Scatter Position / Right Scatter Position to state how far away from the PEAK the
intensities are summed.
The direct scatter can determine the width (Direct Scatter Width) of the sum of intensities
at the peak point.
