What is a borescope?
A borescope is a type of equipment used for remote visual inspection of areas that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to access. Borescopes have a narrow insertion tube with an eyepiece on one end, a lens on the other, and a series of optic fibers that runs between. A rigid borescope creates a very high quality image however, because of its rigid tube design it can not “see” around curves and corners like a fiberscope or a videoscope. The term borescope is often used to generally include borescopes, fiberscopes, and videoscopes. Watch What is a Borescope Video Tutorial.
