Abstract :
The Dept. of Mechatronics, Optics and Information Engineering, within the project team, had built an electronic moire equipment primarily visualising and diagnosing of scoliosis. The device generates a computerized moire phenomenon, which can be viewed by an appropriate display. The applicability of the system was tested from statistical point of view based on moire patterns created by the prototype device particularly the characteristics of the scoliosis.
