(Zygo: Middlefield, CT) -- Zygo Corp. has introduce the Nomad portable optical profiler. The Nomad system employs advanced optical technology and advanced 3D noncontact metrology in a lightweight, compact, and portable package, enabling metrology on samples that were previously impossible or impractical to measure.
