David,
Thanks for the suggestion I did a sample test and it worked well. Rather than a scanner I took a picture thru our microscope which yielded a great resolution. , Do you think that there would be any merit to developing an automated vision system that could calculate the mean peen crater diameter, and number of craters in a given area of a specimen. Then be able to calculate percentage of coverage, and have the ability to compare from lot to lot, as well as differentiate under/over coverage.
Thanks
Bill
