Abstract
One of the major challenges of employing a dual-frequency phase-shifting algorithm for phase retrieval is its sensitivity to noise. Yun et al proposed a dual-frequency method based on the Fourier transform profilometry, yet the low-frequency lobes are close to each other for accurate band-pass filtering. In the light of this problem, a novel dual-frequency pattern based on the spatial-temporal fringes (STF) method is developed in this paper. Three fringe patterns with two different frequencies are required. The low-frequency phase is obtained from two low-frequency fringe patterns by the STF method, so the signal lobes can be extracted accurately as they are far away from each other. The high-frequency phase is retrieved from another fringe pattern without the impact of the DC component. Simulations and experiments are conducted to demonstrate the excellent precision of the proposed method.
