A videoscope system comprises a pair of imaging cameras for capturing a stereoscopic
view of a workspace, and a tracking camera for capturing a field of view including
a marker structure, and a display for displaying the stereoscopic view of the workspace
captured by the pair of imaging cameras and augmented with a computer graphic according
to a position and orientation of the imaging cameras relative to the workspace.
The videoscope system further comprises a processor for determining the position
and orientation of the imaging cameras relative to the workspace based on the location
of the marker structure in the field of view captured by the tracking camera, and
an articulated support apparatus adapted to support a videoscope head comprising
at least the imaging cameras.
