Adaptive chessboard-like high-frequency projection method for three-dimensional measurement of shiny surfaces

Shiny surface is challenging for the structured light fringe projection three-dimensional measurement technique, since the image saturation caused by highlight results in incorrect intensities in captured images of fringe patterns, and leads to serious phase errors and measurement errors. To address the issue, an adaptive chessboard-like high-frequency projection intensity adjustment technique is proposed. The proposed method alleviates image saturation by adaptively adjusting the intensity of the high-frequency chessboard-like projection pattern. And the complementary patterns are projected to suppress reflections and enhance the robustness of decoding. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieve high measurement accuracy for shiny surfaces.
