Abstract
In the three-dimensional (3D) measurement, phase measuring profilometry (PMP) requires no less than three deformed sinusoidal patterns, limiting its applications to static scenarios only. In this paper, a stroboscopic online PMP for fast rotating object with binary dithered patterns is proposed. N frames of novel circular binary grating patterns are designed to measure a rotating object. A defocused digital light projector projects the designed patterns onto the object with stroboscopic method, the corresponding deformed patterns can be “frozen” by charge-coupled device (CCD) camera. Owing to the repeatability and periodicity of rotating movement, a synchronization control unit is used to keep the object at the fixed position in each “frozen” deformed pattern. Every projected pattern is shifted from the previous pattern by a factor of 2π/N. This method makes the images of the object appear stationary in the deformed patterns. The experimental results show the accurate 3D shape of fast rotating object can be reconstructed with the proposed method.
