Baseline Aesthiometer, Two-Point or Three-Point Discriminator

The Baseline Aesthiometer is a sensory testing instrument for evaluating tactile discrimination. Choose the two-point or three-point model, each listed with easy-to-read slide scales marked in 0.1 cm increments and special vinyl tips intended to minimize temperature influence during testing. The three-point model adds a third contact point for alternating between one-point and two-point testing.

The primary photo shows the two-point model. Select the required model; this listing does not describe a set containing both instruments.

Ideal For

This instrument is an option for clinicians assessing tactile discrimination in therapy and rehabilitation settings. It may also be used in appropriate sensory-assessment teaching and research activities. The two models offer different contact-point configurations for the chosen protocol. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and applicable assessment procedures rather than treating scale increments as a guarantee of accuracy or repeatability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the models?
The two-point model has two contact points. The three-point model adds a third point to allow alternation between one-point and two-point testing without switching instruments. Choose the required option before ordering.

What increments are marked on the scale?
The slide scales are listed as marked in 0.1 cm increments. This describes the scale markings, not a verified measurement-accuracy tolerance.

Why are vinyl tips used?
The supplied description identifies special vinyl tips intended to minimize temperature influence during sensation testing. It does not establish that the tips are completely temperature-neutral or eliminate thermal effects.

Are both models included?
The two-point and three-point instruments are separate product options. Select the required model; the listing does not identify a bundle containing both.
