Abstract

This chapter introduces two methods, which significantly improve the measurement outcome of the single-shot 3D movie camera: The further increase of the 3D data density and channel efficiency by the application of a projected pattern with crossed lines. The acquisition of texture information, which enhances the visual impression of the acquired 3D model and could also serve as an additional source of information. Both methods require a slight softening of the ‘pure doctrine’ of the previous two Chaps.  5 and 6, as now additional space-bandwidth restrictions are introduced. In exchange, both improvements are applicable without the need of additional cameras in the setup.

Notes

  1. 1.

    This could also be realized for a slide-projector setup comprising a chrome-on-glass mask. Varying intensity is reached by different line widths or different dithering of the lines on the mask. See [1, 2] for further information.

  2. 2.

    For a final version of the single-shot 3D movie camera, a slide-projector with a chrome-on-glass mask is still preferable, due to the much better illumination conditions. However, a LED projector proved to be advantageous during the development phase, since line numbers, directions, thicknesses, etc. can be changed uncomplicated.

  3. 3.

    The distance between two lines onto the object surface is approximately 2 mm.
