<p>An infrared holographic defect detector (10) comprises a far infrared pulsed coherent source (14) of infrared radiation which provides infrared radiation. The radiation is directed at a generally non-reflective surface (12), for example, a surface of an automobile body having a matt grey pre-coat thereon. A semi-transparent mirror (15) is placed in the path of the radiation to provide a reference beam (17) therefrom. An infrared detector (18) and a charge-coupled device (20) receives the radiation reflected from the surface and the reference signal. A comparator (22) compares the received reflected information and the reference signal and, preferably, information from a source (24) which defines a desired surface configuration in order to derive a quantitative measurement of the surface. A monitor (26) visually displays the quantitative measurement and location of any dents in the surface. To avoid a requirement that sequential automobile doors containing the surface of investigation be three-dimensionally aligned to within microns of reference points, a detector of the reflected radiation can be translated and rotated. A number of sensed images of the surface are taken, one at each of the different positions of the detector. For each image a measure of its correlation with the standard image is made.</p> |
