3D-profilometry of discontinuous solids by fringe projection is a difficult task due to the problem posed by the phase (profile) unwrapping at sharp borders. To solve this problem, Servin et al. proposed the so-called two-steps temporal unwrapping, in which two consecutive sequences of fringe patterns with different spatial frequencies (a low- and a high-frequency patterns sequence) are projected over a static test surface. As the 3D surface profile is retrieved by phase-shifting techniques, each fringe sequence must have at least three phase–shifted frames, which in principle would preclude the use of temporal unwrapping for measuring moving objects since at least it would be necessary to acquire a total of twelve frames (six frames for the test object plus six more for a reference plane). In the present work we present an improvement to this method, which requires the acquisition of only two color-coded fringe patterns (i.e., two RGBimages) for reconstructing the discontinuous 3D surface of a moving object. The proposed approach is based on the projection of fringes with two different frequencies. Validation experiments are presented.
We propose a polarizing Michelson interferometer coupled to a pixelated polarizing camera to visualize dynamic phase objects. Considering the capabilities of the polarizing camera, we employed a temporal phase unwrapping algorithm to process information. Experimental results are presented showing the capabilities of our proposal.
