The device includes a fixed-focus lens, a cylindrical optical housing, and a transparent base with a 1 cm 1 cm etched grid, enabling direct thread counting without external tools. The cylindrical housing ensures stable, distortion-free viewing, while the non-slip base allows hands-free operation. The standardised counting area reduces examiner variability, providing repeatable and objective measurements for forensic, textile authentication, and quality-control applications. The compact, durable design offers a cost-effective alternative to conventional microscopes."
