Abstract

A calibration method is described for a telecentric imaging 3D shape measurement system, including step S1: establishing a telecentric 3D shape measurement system; S2: controlling a telecentric projection equipment to project a sinusoidal fringe pattern to a translation stage, and collecting the sinusoidal fringe pattern by a telecentric camera equipment; moving the translation stage to different depth, then obtaining absolute phase values of a pixel for calibration by a phase-shifting method; and conducting linear fitting on the series of absolute phase values of the pixel and the corresponding depths to obtain a phase-depth conversion of the measurement system; and S3: transforming pixel coordinates on the image plane of the telecentric camera equipment into world coordinates through calibrating parameters of the telecentric camera equipment. A relationship between phase and depth herein is linear, and only needs to calibrate the linearity of one pixel. Therefore, the phase-depth calibration is of small complexity, high precision, good operability and strong practical applicability. Moreover, an orthographic transformation model of camera with bilateral telecentric lens is provid…
