Abstract: A system and method for surface inspection of an object using multiplexed optical coherence tomography (OCT) is provided. The method includes moving the object relative to two or more scanner heads along a direction of travel; alternatingly directing a sample beam to each of the two or more scanner heads; and when the sample beam is directed at each respective scanner head, scanning comprising: steering the sample beam from the respective scanner head to an unscanned region on the surface of the object; and performing an A-scan of the object.

Abstract: A system and method for surface inspection of an object using optical coherence tomography (OCT) is provided. The method includes determining a first working distance; determining a first depth of field, based on the first working distance; changing the depth of field to the first depth of field; performing an A-scan of the object; moving the object; determining a subsequent working distance; determining whether the object is in focus at the subsequent working distance, if the object is not in focus: determining a subsequent depth of field based on the subsequent working distance; changing the depth of field to the first depth of field; and performing an A-scan of the object; and otherwise, performing an A-scan of the object.

Abstract: A system and method for acquiring imaging data of an object. The system includes a beam splitter for directing a derivative sample beam towards the object and a derivative reference beam towards a reflective element; a detector for detecting at least one of the returned reference beam and the returned sample beam; a mode switching module for selecting an operating mode between an optical coherence tomography (OCT) mode and a hyperspectral imaging (HSI) mode; and a computing module for receiving the detection from the detector and the mode from the mode switching module, wherein in the OCT mode, the computing device generates OCT imaging data by determining an interference pattern produced by a superposition of the returned reference beam and the returned sample beam, and wherein in the HSI mode, the computing module generating hyperspectral imaging data by determining hyperspectral information of the returned sample beam.

Abstract: A system and method for surface inspection of an object using optical coherence tomography (OCT) with anticipatory depth of field adjustment is provided. The method includes determining a present working distance and one or more forward working distances; determining a present depth of field in which the surface of the object is in focus at the location of the present working distance and at as many of the consecutive forward surface locations as determined possible; changing to the present depth of field; performing an A-scan of the object; moving the object such that the scanner head is directed at each of the consecutive forward surface locations determined to be in the present depth of field; and performing an A-scan at each of the consecutive forward surface locations determined to be in the present depth of field.

Abstract: A system and method for surface inspection of an object using optical coherence tomography (OCT) is provided. The method includes determining a surface profile of the object, the surface profile includes one or more regions on a surface of the object; moving the object relative to the OCT scanner head; and for each of the one or more regions on the surface of the object, performing: determining a working distance where the surface of the object at the respective region is within a present depth of field; determining an angle where the respective region is at the determined working distance from an OCT scanner head; directing the OCT scanner head at the determined angle towards the respective region when the respective region is at the determined working distance along the respective angle; and performing an A-scan of the object when the respective region is within the present depth of field.
