Abstract
A method and a device for measuring the topography and/or the gradients and/or the curvature of an optically active surface of an object are disclosed. The device allows the object to be arranged in a receiving region with a contact surface for contact with the object. Inside the device, there is a plurality of point light sources that provide light that is reflected at the surface to be measured of an object arranged in the receiving region. The device includes at least one camera with an objective assembly and an image sensor for detecting a brightness distribution which is produced on a light sensor by the light of the point light sources reflected at the surface to be measured.
