Abstract
THE scientific staff of the Zeiss firm have of late I years devoted much attention to the theory of binocular instruments, and to the development of methods of measurement depending on stereoscopic vision. The impetus given by the successful realisation of the prism field-glass has carried them on to a more exact examination of the conditions under which binocular vision can be employed for the accurate determination of relative position, which has led to the design of a series of new instruments for surveying and other purposes, of which the stereo-comparator is the most widely known.
