Aperture measurement based on a conic invariant

With the advantages of low cost, universal applicability, and in situ detection, the conic invariant of the tested aperture diameter was obtained by ellipse geometric fitting on the aperture surface. The world coordinate system was established, and the transformation relationship between the world coordinate system and the camera coordinate system was obtained by the calibration. The improved Candy algorithm and coordinate transformation relationship could be used to project the sub-pixel coordinates of the aperture edge onto the aperture surface. Then, the ellipse geometric fitting was performed on the aperture edge curve surface to obtain the conic invariant. Finally, the conic invariant was used to measure the aperture diameter on the test bench.
