Droplets to probe surfaces

The invention allows reconstructing the shape of a droplet with the help of reflections of a light source. Hereby, the contact angle between the droplet and the substrate as well as the droplet volume and other parameters can be determined. Through a vertical view many droplets can be captured automatically and synchronously. The procedure simplifies the conventional determination of wettability parameters of new surfaces and can be applied wherever many droplets need to be captured and analyzed at the same time.
