Abstract
In phase-shifting fringe projection profilometry, nonlinearities of the used devices affect measurement accuracy by induing harmonics in fringe signals. The resulting errors are manifested as ripple artifacts in the measured phase maps. Especially when phase shifts are not uniform, the error artifacts have unpredictable profiles and complicated frequency components thus being not easy to eliminate. To solve this problem, this paper suggests a method for suppressing effects of fringe harmonics when using arbitrary phase shifts. For doing it, this paper derives the frequency transfer function that explicitly represents the response of the phase-shifting algorithm to each order of fringe harmonics, and then uses this function to deduce a method that allows one to estimate the coefficients of harmonics from spectrum of the calculated complex fringe pattern. By iteratively subtracting off the estimated harmonics from the calculated complex fringe pattern, fringe phases are calculated accurately. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that this method significantly suppresses the influence of fringe harmonics on measurement results and, simultaneously, it preserves edges and details of the measured object from being blurred.
期刊介绍:
Optics Communications invites original and timely contributions containing new results in various fields of optics and photonics. The journal considers theoretical and experimental research in areas ranging from the fundamental properties of light to technological applications. Topics covered include classical and quantum optics, optical physics and light-matter interactions, lasers, imaging, guided-wave optics and optical information processing. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers concentrating on mathematical and computational issues, with limited connection to optics, are not suitable for publication in the Journal. Similarly, small technical advances, or papers concerned only with engineering applications or issues of materials science fall outside the journal scope.
