Fast three-step phase-shifting algorithm.

We propose a new three-step phase-shifting algorithm, which is much faster than the traditional three-step algorithm. We achieve the speed advantage by using a simple intensity ratio function to replace the arctangent function in the traditional algorithm. The phase error caused by this new algorithm is compensated for by use of a lookup table. Our experimental results show that both the new algorithm and the traditional algorithm generate similar results, but the new algorithm is 3.4 times faster. By implementing this new algorithm in a high-resolution, real-time three-dimensional shape measurement system, we were able to achieve a measurement speed of 40 frames per second at a resolution of 532 x 500 pixels, all with an ordinary personal computer.

Microscopic phase-shifting profilometry based on digital micromirror device technology.

A microscopic three-dimensional (3-D) shape measurement system based on digital fringe projection has been developed and experimentally investigated. A Digital Micromirror Device along with its illumination optics is integrated into a stereomicroscope, which projects computer-generated fringe patterns with a sinusoidal intensity profile through the microscope objective onto the object surface being measured. The fringe patterns deformed by the object surface are recorded by a CCD camera. The microscopic 3-D shape of the object surface is measured and reconstructed by use of a phase-shifting technique. We discuss design considerations and error analysis of the system. Experimental results successfully demonstrate the capability of this technique for surface profile measurement of rough surfaces at the micrometer level.

Double three-step phase-shifting algorithm.

We describe what we believe is a new phase-shifting algorithm called a double three-step algorithm developed to reduce the measurement error of a three-dimensional shape-measurement system, which is based on digital fringe-projection and phase-shifting techniques. After comparing the performance of different existing phase-shifting algorithms, we present the new double three-step algorithm based on the error analysis of the standard three-step algorithm. In this algorithm, three-step phase shifting is done twice with an initial phase offset of 60 degrees between them, and the two obtained phase maps are averaged to generate the final phase map. Both theoretical and experimental results showed that this new algorithm worked well in significantly reducing the measurement error.
