  • Patent number: 11615608
    Abstract: An image obtaining method comprises: by a projecting device, separately projecting an image acquisition light and a reference light onto a target object, wherein the light intensity of the image acquisition light is higher than the light intensity of the reference light; by an image obtaining device, obtaining a first image and a second image, both the first image and the second image comprising the image of the target object, with the target object of the first image being illuminated by the image acquisition light, and the target object of the second image being illuminated by the reference light, wherein the first image has a first area including a part of the target object, and the second image has a second area including the part of the target object; and by a computing device, performing a difference evaluation procedure to obtain a required light intensity based on a required amount.

  • Patent number: 11549805
    Abstract: A projecting apparatus includes a projecting device, an image-capturing device and a processing device. The projecting device projects a reversible structured light code onto a surface. The image-capturing device captures the reversible structured light code projected onto the surface and obtains image data. The processing device is coupled to the projecting device and the image-capturing device. The processing device receives the image data, generates three-dimensional point cloud information by performing decoding on the image data, and obtains scanning shift information corresponding to the projecting device according to the three-dimensional point cloud information and three-dimensional information corresponding to the surface.
