4D surface shape measurement system with high spectral resolution and great depth accuracy.

Abstract

A 4D surface shape measurement system that combines spectral detection and 3D surface morphology measurements is proposed, which can realize high spectral resolution and great depth accuracy (HSDA system). A starring hyperspectral imager system based on a grating generates precise spectral data, while a structured light stereovision system reconstructs target morphology as a 3D point cloud. The systems are coupled using a double light path module, which realize point-to-point correspondence of the systems' image planes. The spectral and 3D coordinate data are fused and transformed into a 4D data set. The HSDA system has excellent performance with a spectral resolution of 3 nm and depth accuracy of 27.5 μm. A range of 4D imaging experiments are presented to demonstrate the capabilities and versatility of the HSDA system, which show that it can be used in broad range of application areas, such as fluorescence detection, face anti-spoofing, physical health state assessment and green plant growth condition monitoring.
