Result Interpretation

Optical Comparator Magnification Calibration Expanded Uncertainty calculator computes Expanded uncertainty (k=2) in m using the defined engineering formula and the input values provided. Expanded uncertainty (k=2) is expressed in m. No universal acceptance threshold is defined by this calculator.

Worked Example

Verified calculation

Given:

  • Stage translation standard uncertainty = 1.5E-6
  • Lens distortion standard uncertainty = 8.2E-7
  • Camera pixel pitch standard uncertainty = 3.1E-7
  • Reference standard calibration standard uncertainty = 5.0E-7

Expected Result:

  • Expanded uncertainty (k=2) = 3.73E-6

Engineering Interpretation:

Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Expanded uncertainty (k=2) = 3.73E-6 m.

The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from automatically validated test cases.

Formula / Method

k=2 = 2.0 * sqrt(pow(stage translation standard uncertainty, 2) + pow(lens distortion standard uncertainty, 2) + pow(camera pixel pitch standard uncertainty, 2) + pow(reference standard calibration standard uncertainty, 2))
