Photometric stereo on carbon fiber surfaces∗

چکیده
The production of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) is currently changing from a highly manual and expensive to an automated process. However for automated production of CFRP parts new sensor systems for quality control are required. In this article we present a photometric stereo inspection system that is able to automatically evaluate critical quality criteria of carbon fiber fabrics. Based on the sensor output we propose a specific segmentation method, tailored towards the typical properties of woven carbon fiber fabrics that partitions the fabric into single segments for feature calculation and classification. Finally we show that the proposed system is able to detect a multitude of defects in a real-time system.

متن کاملColour Dynamic Photometric Stereo for Textured Surfaces
In this paper we present a novel method to apply photometric stereo on textured dynamic surfaces. We aim at exploiting the high accuracy of photometric stereo and reconstruct local surface orientation from illumination changes. The main difficulty derives from the fact that photometric stereo requires varying illumination while the object remains still, which makes it quite impractical to use f...
متن کامل3D Reconstruction Using Shape from Photometric Stereo and Contours
In this work, we further discuss an approach to 3D shape recovery by combining photometric stereo and shape from contours methods. Surfaces recovered by photometric stereo are aligned, adjusted and merged according to a preliminary 3D model obtained by shape from contours. Comparisons are conducted to evaluate the performances of different methods. It has been found that the proposed combinatio...

Textured surface analysis is essential for many applications. In this paper, we present a three-dimensional recovery approach for real textured surfaces based on photometric stereo. The aim is to be able to measure the textured surfaces with a high degree of accuracy. For this, we use a color digital sensor and principles of color photometric stereo. This method uses a single color image, inste...
متن کاملGeneralisation of Photometric Stereo technique to Q-illuminants
We present a generalisation of the 4-light photometric stereo technique to an arbitrary number Q of illuminants. We assume that the surface reflectance can be approximated by the Lambertian model plus a reflectance component. The algorithm works in a recursive manner eliminating the pixel intensities affected by shadows or highlights based on a least squares error technique, retaining only the ...
