Overview
Smart G-Scope is a practical tool to examine marks, wear, micro-cracks, and texture on archaeological materials without bulky equipment.
Its portability makes it suitable for both lab work and field contexts, documenting finds with photos and video.
It can help identify manufacturing techniques, surface deterioration, and conservation processes.
Key benefits
- Non-destructive analysis of surfaces and micro-details
- Immediate visual documentation of finds
- Compact equipment for lab and field work
- Enables before/after comparisons in conservation

Practical examples
Tool marks on ceramics or metal
Examine manufacturing and wear traces to infer techniques or production processes.
Condition assessment
Detect micro-cracks, flaking, or surface deterioration before intervention.
Find documentation
Capture detailed images for reports, inventories, and collaborative work with other teams.
Limitations & best practices
- It does not replace advanced analytical techniques (SEM/EDS) when detailed chemical composition is required.
- Irregular objects may require flexible support to achieve stability.
