Abstract:
A multi-plane imaging system for imaging multiple reflection planes of a regular or irregular shaped three-dimensional (3D) specimen having top, side and bottom views simultaneously. The system includes an inverted watertight pyramid well having at least four reflective side surfaces for reflecting the specimen side views, wherein each of the at least four reflective sides surfaces define an angle, θ, relative to the base horizontal plane, and wherein each reflective side surface comprises a plurality of reflective zones; A specimen is positioned horizontally equidistant from the at least four reflective side surfaces and positioned vertically from the base horizontal plane a predetermined vertical distance; wherein the predetermined vertical distance, the at least four reflective side surfaces, and the angle θ comprise a reflection image plane for reflecting the specimen bottom views.
