Summary:A new Macintosh super(TM)-controlled microscope stage and digitizing tablet system has been developed that automates external detector method grain-to-mica matching, track length measurement, slide scanning, object centering, and file management within a single, well-integrated, user-friendly program environment. The system is based on a high-quality Kinetek super(TM) automated scanning stage that has found wide use in the microelectronics industry. A unique feature of the system is use of the digitizing tablet cursor to control most stage actions, resulting in a very intuitive and natural mode of operation, and faster and less tedious analysis of samples than with other automated systems.
