The section selection signal is a signal indicating that the section is selected by dragging a straight line from the first point to the second point in the image displayed on the touch screen by the user.

When the section selection signal is received, the system controller 20 may measure the actual distance corresponding to the selected section (step: S3) and display the measured actual distance on the touch screen (step: S4). For example, the calculation module 24 of the system controller 20 may measure how far the distance between the first point and the second point in the image is actually. Subsequently, the user interface display module 22 may display the measured actual distance in real time on the length measurement mode screen illustrated in FIG. 17, for example. Therefore, the user can simply check the actual distance corresponding to the dragged section in real time by simply dragging a desired section from the image displayed on the touch screen.

19 is a flowchart illustrating a process of measuring, by the system controller 20, the actual distance of a section selected by a user in detail. 19 may be performed by the calculation module 24 of the system controller 20. In the description of this embodiment, it is assumed that the user drags a straight section from the point A2 to the point B2 in the image displayed on the touch screen.

As shown in FIG. 19, the system controller 20 may first measure the actual distance between the first reference point and the second reference point by using the scale reticle displayed by the microscope unit 10 in the displayed image. (Step S11). The first reference point and the second reference point may be preset. Preferably, the first reference point and the second reference point are the same X coordinate value (in this case, two points have different Y coordinate values) or the same Y coordinate value (in this case, two points have different X coordinate values). It can be a point). In the present embodiment, an example in which the first reference point and the second reference point are set to have the same Y coordinate value will be described.

As shown in FIG. 20, the system controller 20 may measure the actual length between the first reference point and the second reference point at the magnification of the currently displayed image using the scale of the scale reticle displayed with the image. have. As mentioned above, the scale reticle is formed in the light transmitting part 35 and may be displayed together with the image. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 20, it is assumed that the actual distance between the first reference point and the second reference point is 500 micrometers.

Subsequently, the system controller 20 may obtain pixel coordinates of the first reference point and the second reference point, respectively, in the displayed image (step S12). In other words, the pixel coordinates of the touch screen are obtained. For example, it may be assumed that the X-axis pixel coordinate of the first reference point illustrated in FIG. 20 is 375 pixels, and the X-axis pixel coordinate of the second reference point is 506 pixels.

Next, the system controller 20 may calculate a pixel length between the first reference point and the second reference point (step S13). The pixel length may be the number of pixels between two points. For example, assuming that the X-axis pixel coordinate of the first reference point is 375 pixels and the X-axis pixel coordinate of the second reference point is 506 pixels, the pixel length between the two points is "506-375 = 131". 131 pixels.

Subsequently, the system controller 20 may calculate the actual distance per pixel in the current image based on the calculated pixel length between the two points and the measured actual distance between the two points (step: S14). That is, the actual distance corresponding to one pixel is calculated from the currently displayed image magnification. For example, the actual length between the first reference point and the second reference point shown in FIG. 20 is 500 micrometers, and the pixel length between the two points is 131 pixels, so the actual length per pixel is " 500 micrometers / 131 pixels = 3.816793893129771 ", the actual length per pixel calculated may be 3.816793893129771 micrometers.

When the actual length per pixel is calculated, the system controller 20 may calculate the pixel length of the section selected by the user using a prestored pixel length calculation algorithm (step S15). FIG. 21 is an exemplary diagram illustrating a state in which a user drags a specific section in a straight line on the displayed image, and FIG. 22 is an exemplary diagram for describing a process of calculating a pixel length of a specific section selected by the user.

As illustrated in FIGS. 21 to 22, a user may drag a specific section in the displayed image. For example, the user dragged from point A2 to point B2 on the displayed image. It is assumed here that the pixel coordinates of point A2 are (X1, Y1) and point B2 is (X2, Y2).

The system control unit 20 calculates the X-axis pixel coordinate difference between the point A2 and the point B2, calculates the Y-axis pixel coordinate difference between the point A2 and the point B2, calculates the square of the calculated X-axis pixel coordinate difference, and the calculated Y-axis. After the square of the pixel coordinate difference is added, the square root of the added value can be calculated to obtain the pixel distance between the point A2 and the point B2.

This process can be expressed using Pythagorean theorem as in Equation 1 below.

Equation 1

Where a is the pixel length between point A2 and point C, b is the pixel length between point B2 and point C, and c represents the pixel length between point A2 and point B2. The point C mentioned above may mean a virtual point having a pixel coordinate value of (X2, Y1). This process may be expressed as "Math.sqrt (Math.pow (AX coordinate-BX coordinate, 2) + Math.pow (AY coordinate-BY coordinate, 2)" as a formula of Java).

When the pixel distance between the point A2 and the point B2 is calculated, the system controller 20 may calculate the actual length of the section selected by the user based on the calculated pixel distance between the two points and the actual length per pixel (step S16). ). For example, the system controller 20 may calculate the actual distance between the point A2 and the point B2 by multiplying the pixel distance between the point A2 and the point B2 by the actual length per pixel.

As such, when the actual distance for the section selected by the user is calculated, the system controller 20 may display the calculated actual distance (step S17). Accordingly, the user may check the real distance of the dragged section in real time by dragging a desired section while watching the micrometer or millimeter scale image captured by the user in the distance measuring mode.
