Mentor Visual iQ+ aviation borescope features

Designed with complex inspection applications in mind, the Everest Mentor Visual iQ+ aircraft borescope meets the highest standards in image quality, 3D measurement capability, AI analytics, and workflow automation. 

NEW Real3D™ Measurement - Advanced 3D Inspection Software
Advanced 3D Inspection Software

Real3D™ measurement combines fully surfaced point cloud visualization, advanced measurement algorithms and an insightful 3D Surface Mask to enable more accurate and repeatable measurement decisions. Choose from Real3D Stereo or 3D Phased Measurement which allows measurement on-demand without changing tips.​

​Each of these technologies is compatible with some or all measurement types to help get the measurement needed in every application. They include basics like length, depth point to line and area, but also specialty types including missing corner area, area depth profile, automatic blade tip clearance and radius gauge for boro-blending assessment.

Aside from measurement types, Real3D provides advanced tools such as depth assist and measurement plane to further increase accuracy of measurements.

What's New with Measurement?
  • Missing Corner: measures the area and edge lengths of a missing blade corner with 1 point designating the tip and up to 23 additional points placed along broken edge. Now inspectors can accurately determine how much material has detached for quick engine serviceability assessment.
  • Surface Angle: measures the angle between a reference plane and an angle plane. For the first time on any borescope, we can now determine deformation or deflection of a compressor blade to provide a the value in degrees. Surface angle uses a simple 4 cursor workflow very similar to depth.
  • Auto Area: generates masks quickly to calculate an area you specify.

Advanced imaging, precise measurement, and connected workflows that help inspectors find defects faster, make confident maintenance decisions, and reduce aircraft downtime.

Real3D Measurement
Real3D Measurement for Accurate Serviceability Decisions

Aircraft inspections often require more than identifying a defect. Inspectors need accurate data to determine whether a component can remain in service. Real3D measurement enables precise sizing of cracks, dents, wear, corrosion, and tip rubs on complex engine surfaces, helping maintenance teams make confident maintenance decisions while supporting compliance with OEM inspection criteria.



InspectionWorks aviation software features

Digitize, standardize, and accelerate aircraft inspection workflows from capture to reporting.

Standardized Aircraft Inspection Workflows

Create and deploy Menu Directed Inspections (MDIs) that guide inspectors through each inspection step, ensuring consistent procedures, standardized image capture, and complete inspection coverage across fleets. Reduce variability between technicians while supporting compliance and quality objectives.
