Introduction
Figure 1.2 – 3D (left), intensity (top right), and scatter (bottom right) images of a blister
pack with one damaged blister and two empty blisters.
There are three different models of the Ranger available:
Ranger C Connects to the PC via CameraLink.
Ranger E Connects to the PC through a Gigabit Ethernet network.
Ranger D A low-cost, mid-performance version of the Ranger E, suitable for measuring
3D only in applications without high-speed requirements. The Ranger D can
measure up to 1000 profiles per second.
The Ranger C and E models are MultiScan cameras, which mean that they can make
several types of measurements on the object in parallel. This is achieved by applying
different measurement methods to different parts of the sensor.
By selecting appropriate illuminations for the different areas of the measurement scene,
the Ranger can be used for measuring several features of the objects at the very same
time.

multiple light sources.
