1. An apparatus to capture and display an image of an object on a surface, said apparatus comprising:
- a frame,at least one optical sensor for capturing the image of the object,means for moving the frame relative to the surface of the object in a first direction with a translational movement, andmeans for moving the optical sensor relative to the frame in a second direction, wherein the means for moving the frame relative to a surface of the object in a first direction comprises first and second skids rotatably connected to a side of the frame comprising a roller between the first and second skids, wherein the first and second skids rotatably connect on an end of the skid to a side of the frame and rotates such that one extends in front of the frame at each side of the frame to support the apparatus with respect to the surface such that the surface is visible in a center region in front of the frame between the skids.

22. An apparatus to capture and display an image of an object, said apparatus comprising:
-
a frame able to support a device with at least one optical sensor for capturing the image of the object, means for moving the frame relative to a surface of the object in a first direction with translational movement, and means for moving the optical sensor relative to the frame in a second direction, wherein the means for moving the frame relative to a surface of the object in a first direction comprises first and second skids rotatably connected to a side of the frame such that they extend in front of the frame when the apparatus is in use and means to facilitate rolling movement located between the first and second skids. - View Dependent Claims (24)

23. A method of forming a device for displaying an image of an object, the method comprising:
- forming a frame which can move across a surface of the object, the frame comprising at least one skid rotatably connected to a side of the frame and rotatably extends in front of the frame to a side of the frame for supporting the device when in use and a roller adjacent to the at least one skid; and
connecting a body with at least one optical sensor to the frame so that the body can move in relation to the frame in a second direction with translational movement such that the optical sensor is able to capture an object on a surface in front of the device and to a side of the skid.
- forming a frame which can move across a surface of the object, the frame comprising at least one skid rotatably connected to a side of the frame and rotatably extends in front of the frame to a side of the frame for supporting the device when in use and a roller adjacent to the at least one skid; and
