Three-dimensional capturing of underwater archeological sites or sunken shipwrecks can support important documentation purposes. In this study, a novel 3D scanning system based on structured illumination is introduced, which supports cultural heritage and measurement tasks in environments. The newly developed consists two monochrome cameras, projection unit that produces aperiodic sinusoidal fringe patterns, flashlights, color camera, an inertial (IMU), electronic control box. opportunities...
Next-best-view (NBV) planning is an important aspect for three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction within controlled environments, such as a camera mounted on robotic arm. NBV methods aim at purposive 3D sustaining predefined goals and limitations. Up to now, literature mainly presents range sensors, model-based approaches or algorithms that address the of finite set primitives. For this work, we use intensity without active illumination. We present novel combined online approach comprising...

Measuring systems using fringe projection provide the possibility of very accurate touchless measurements. For measurement small objects compact devices are possible. However, in case close distances between optical system and measuring object there is a considerable influence distance to lens distortion. This will lead errors if neglected. In typical cases our amount distortion may change by factor greater than two range difference few centimetres. Results dependence be given for lenses devices.

3D measurement of the shape rough structures can be realised with structured light illumination techniques. Several problems arise while measuring complex object geometries these Complex objects are characterized, f.e. by deep holes, walls, concave and convex corner-like shaped surface structures. When illuminating object, one part "illuminate" another one, yielding locally spurious fringe patterns. Due to patterns phase values strongly distorted significantly increasing noise locally. Here...
