Functionality 18
How does it work? 3D data as output from a handheld device. Two steps: 1. Single frame 3D data 2. Combination of multiple frames Calibrated system with: Two IR cameras One color camera One laser 19
Single frame 3D Project laser on surface Detect laser pattern in IR cameras (reflectivity depending on surface) Calculate 3D points 20
Single frame 3D Stereoscopic imaging system, 3D points by triangulation 21
Single frame 3D Stereoscopic imaging system, 3D points by triangulation Camera A Camera B 22
Light source & pattern Pattern of 11k points, each point about 1mm in diameter Points detected with subpixel accuracy in camera images Ridge waveguide laser, 800mW total peak power No coding in pattern. Superior resolution compared to sensors like Kinect/PrimeSense 23
Limitations Measurement geometry: short baseline (or large distance from device) reduces precision Long baseline Short baseline Difficult situations for 3D capture: Sunlight Polished/clear surfaces Absorbing material 24
Combine multiple frames Single 3D frames available. How to combine them? Frame-to-frame registration Tracking of natural targets in colour video 3D information added for tracking if available Possibility to use coded markers for tracking and registration 25
Combine multiple frames What are the limitations? Insufficient features (e.g. scanning white walls) Bad lighting conditions (too dark) Moving objects in image 26
Combine multiple frames Room cross section 27
