Abstract

An example method includes capturing a plurality of images of a rotating object using an imaging device optically coupled to a microscope. The method removing a first portion of a model of the rotating object based on a first contour of the rotating object in a first image of the plurality of images. The method includes orienting the model based on an amount of rotation of the rotating object between capture of the first image and capture of a second image of the plurality of images. The method also includes removing a second portion of the model of the rotating object based on a second contour of the rotating object in the second image.
