An endoscope device including an insertion part including an observation
optical system and a measuring optical system, wherein the endoscope
device is provided with a characteristic value comparing circuit 85 which
compares previous characteristic values and current characteristic value
to identify previous characteristic values corresponding to the current
characteristic values, corresponding to the previous characteristic
values, identified by the corresponding to the previous characteristic
values, identified by the characteristic value comparing circuit 85, are
stored in a storage circuit C2 together with various information.
According to the invention, for inspection turbine blades of jet engines,
automation (labor-saving) of the inspection process by reducing the
number of the inspection steps is realized and the difficulty in the
inspection of analysis areas is eliminated.
