Automatic profilometry of 3-D diffuse objects by spatial phase detection

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A method automatically processing a projected grating to profile a 3-D diffuse object is proposed. A deformed grating pattern projected on the object is regarded as a phase modulated pattern with a constant spatial carrier frequency. To retrieve phase modulation, acquired data in a microcomputer are sinusoidally fitted using a phase detection algorithm similar to that used in communication techniques. High sensitivity measurements of height distribution can be done using simple optical geometry. Random and systematic errors inherent in the method are discussed in detail.
