Color-coded fringe patterns have emerged as a key technique for enabling real-time three-dimensional (3D) shape measurement in fringe projection profilometry (FPP). However, color crosstalk inherent in color cameras remains a significant factor limiting measurement accuracy. To mitigate this issue, a high-precision calibration method for color crosstalk coefficients is proposed to enable effective correction in this paper. Specifically, a crosstalk coefficient estimator is developed based on orthogonal phase-shifted fringe patterns, and the theoretical relationship between the crosstalk coefficients and phase error is derived. The color orthogonal fringes are then designed to project onto a standard planar target to acquire separated R, G, and B channel patterns. Finally, a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is introduced to optimize the crosstalk-induced phase errors and calibrate the crosstalk coefficients with high precision. Experimental validation based on a standard dual-sphere calibration plate shows that the diameter fitting errors of the two spheres are 0.0191 mm and 0.0160 mm, respectively, and the error in the calculated center-to-center distance is as low as 0.0120 mm, which demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively enhance the measurement accuracy and applicability of color cameras in fringe projection technology.
