FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does a GelSight 3D surface scanner work?

GelSight uses imaging-based tactile sensing: a soft elastomer sensor is pressed onto the surface and cameras capture its 3D topography. Because it measures the shape rather than the optical properties, it works on almost any material.

What can GelSight measure?

3D surface profiles, line and surface roughness (Ra, Rq, Rz), volume and depth of dents and wear, and pitting and particle counts — all with micron-level resolution.

Can GelSight be used on the production line or in the field?

Yes. GelSight Mobile is a handheld scanner for on-site inspection, GelSight Max is a high-resolution benchtop system, and GelSight Modular sensors integrate into automation and production lines.
