Abstract

This paper introduces a dual-projector phase measuring profiler that adds a second projector to a traditional structured light illumination system to improve the overall quality of 3D scanning. With this method, two projectors are synchronized to a single camera, but each one projects structured light patterns of a unique frequency. The system performance benefits from a wider projection angle and doubled light intensity. In particular, a detailed system implementation in hardware is described. Moreover, the major difference between the phase unwrapping of our dual-projector system versus a single-projector system is discussed with a LUTbased phase unwrapping scheme proposed.
