[0030] Furthermore, the binocular camera 30 transmits information through the communication line of the main control module inside the beam splitter 10 .

[0031] Embodiment 1:

[0032] When the present application needs to perform S ID or source-skin distance measurement, the binocular camera 30 uses two cameras to simultaneously shoot the same object through the first light transmission port 11, and measures the pixel difference in the image of the same object in the field of view of the two cameras, so as to calculate the distance between the objects, and display the measured S ID or source-skin distance value in real time through the display panel 40.
