Accurate 3D Measurement of Complex Texture Objects by Height Compensation Using a Dual-Projector Structure

Fringe projection profilometry is a widely used technique for 3D measurement due to its high accuracy and speed. However, the accuracy significantly decreases when measuring complex texture objects, especially in the junction of different colors. This paper analyzes the causes of errors resulting from complex textures and proposes a height compensation method to revise the error by employing a dual-projector structure. Moreover, the dual-projector is capable of acquiring a pair of errors with opposite signs, which can be utilized to calculate the accurate 3D information after determining the ratio of this pair of errors. Experiments provide significant improvement in measuring complex texture objects, demonstrating the proposed method's ability.
