Dynamic computer-generated moiré profilometry based on high-density binary coding.

Abstract

A dynamic computer-generated moiré profilometry based on high-density binary coding is proposed. For making full use of the maximum refresh rate and the maximum resolution of the digital light projector (DLP), the binary coded fringe is used to replace the conventional 256-gray-scale sinusoidal fringe, which can increase the refresh rate from the traditional 120Hz to more than 1kHz and meet the needs of dynamic measurement from the source. To realize the minimum equivalent wavelength and obtain the purest calculated moiré fringe, a minimum four-pixel period high-density binary fringe that satisfies the sampling theorem is designed for the DLP. The measuring accuracy of computer-generated moiré profilometry is effectively improved due to its minimum equivalent wavelength. The experimental results show the feasibility and practicability of the proposed method. It not only possesses higher measuring accuracy, but also possesses a proper potential application in dynamic three-dimensional measurement.
