Abstract

Phase measurement profilometry is a well-known technique for making 3D measurements. The technique involves the projection of patterns with a sinusoidally varying spatial intensity. This approach has been used extensively to make highly accurate measurements of static images. The use of structured light to make highly accurate measurements on human subjects is more difficult because of the inherent motion of the subject under test. In this paper, we discuss the implementation of LUT based processing in combination with novel architectures to enable accurate measurements of human subjects. Two specific applications are reviewed: human body scanning and intra-oral dental scanning.
