Re: Measuring Reeds

Those are dial gauges, like Perfecta-reed. They measure discrete points on the reed's surface, and each point on each reed must be read one at a time. I'm interested in something that will scan an entire reed, analyzing (most likely by how much light gets through, but it could use some other more advanced property) the thickness of the cane at many more individual points, read simultaneously by a scanner of some kind. The end result, hopefully, would be a visual map of the reed's profile. Once you have such a digital map of a reed, you could compare it using software to other reeds to indicate differences.

But thanks for the URL. There are some interesting tools there.
