System Overview

The rugged and dependable Mentor Visual iQ system is an advanced flexible video borescope used for remote visual inspection.
®
Working through access passages, the Visual iQ system delivers high-resolution images of internal details of turbine engines, airframes, automotive engines, piping, vessels, wind-
turbine gear boxes, underwater structures, etc.
The probe's fiberoptic bundle illuminates the inspection area with light generated by an advanced Light Engine in the probe. At the end of the probe, a miniature camera assembly
converts the image into an electronic image, and sends it back through the probe. The system displays the image on the handset. No focusing is required, because the Visual iQ
system contains a fixed-focus optical system with a large depth of field.
Measurement capabilities allow your system to analyze and measure indications and features.
The Visual iQ system is compatible with USB thumb drives, USB keyboards, USB portable drives, and most other USB-based storage devices.
With our QuickChange™ interchangeable probes, you can quickly reconfigure the system for maximum productivity.
