“Scanning from Heating” and “Shape from Fluorescence”
2011
3D surface acquisition is a subject which has been studied to a large extent. A significant number of techniques for acquiring shape have been proposed, and a wide range of commercial solutions are available. Nevertheless, today’s systems still have difficulties when digitizing objects with non-Lambertian surfaces in the visible light spectrum, as is the case of transparent, semi-transparent or highly reflective materials (e.g. glass, crystals, some plastics and shiny metals). In this chapter, some of the issues of traditional scanning systems are addressed by considering various approaches using the radioactive properties of materials, the polarization information of the reflected light as…
3D reconstruction of transparent objects exploiting surface fluorescence caused by UV irradiation
2010
In this paper, we present a novel approach exploiting fluorescence imaging to estimate the shape of transparent objects. Classical inspection systems require users to coat transparent objects with some powder before measurement. Methods suggested in literature through non contact measurement do not effectively deal with the refraction problem, thus, providing inaccuracies. The proposed method handles the scanning of transparent objects without using any powder and solving the refraction problem using UV environment. A classical triangulation method based on stereovision scheme using fixed stereoscopic visible range cameras with a fixed UV (Ultra Violet) laser source is implemented. Transpar…
