Abstract
En 中文
Fringe projection profilometry (FPP) has emerged as a widely used noncontact 3-D measurement technique due to its full-field acquisition, high precision, and rapid measurement capabilities. However, its performance degrades significantly when measuring objects with complex surface reflection characteristics, as light undergoes interreflection and subsurface scattering during measurement, generating indirect light signals that lead to reconstruction errors. Dual profilometry, a computational 3-D profilometry based on dual photography theory, overcomes this limitation by treating each camera pixel as a single-pixel detector to isolate the direct light signals. While theoretically effective, existing implementations need the reconstruction of millions of dual images. To overcome this limitation, we present an efficient reconstruction method that avoids dual image reconstruction. Experimental validation demonstrates that the reconstruction speed can be substantially improved compared with existing dual profilometry implementations, achieved without compromising reconstruction accuracy. The proposed method effectively resolves the efficiency bottleneck that has hindered the practical adoption of dual profilometry, enabling its deployment in practical applications such as industrial inspection and high-resolution biomedical surface characterization.
