Zusammenfassung:A fluorescent borescope is provided that provides target measuring capabilities. The device includes a primary ultraviolet light source and a secondary visible light source that has a light path spaced apart from the primary light source. The secondary light source is associated with a shadow bar that projects a shadow onto a target to be measured in a way that its video image changes position or size in proportion to the distance of the image sensing head of the borescope from the target. Calibration and measurement circuitry are provided to determine the size of the target in relation to the magnification of the projected shadow.
