Abstract

See full text

Embodiments of methods are disclosed for determining at least one dimension or a wear characteristic of a superabrasive element, such as a polycrystalline diamond cutting element. In an embodiment, a method for characterizing a superabrasive element using two-dimensional images is disclosed. Two images of a superabrasive element are obtained. A relationship between two dimensional coordinates on the two images and three-dimensional coordinates on the superabrasive element may be approximated using projective transformation techniques. A wear flat dimension on the superabrasive element may be determined or calculated using the approximated relationship between the two dimensional coordinates on the two images and the three-dimensional coordinates on the superabrasive element.
