Profilometry apparatus and method of operation

摘要

A profilometry apparatus is provided. The profilometry apparatus includes a fringe projection device configured to project a fringe pattern on an object and an optical unit configured to capture an image of a distorted fringe pattern modulated by the object. The profilometry apparatus also includes a signal processing unit configured to process the captured image from the optical unit to filter noise from the image and to obtain real-time estimation of parameters associated with manufacture or repair of the object.
