Patent number: 12215967Abstract: A line-scanning three-dimensional sensing system measures a surface profile of an object. In the system, a dispersion optical module (DOM) performs a forward optical process of chromatically dispersing a polychromatic linear light beam into constituent narrowband linear light beams (CNLLBs) and focusing the CNLLBs on different focal planes to form a rainbow light pattern for illuminating a scanned surface of the object. The illuminated object displays an information-bearing color image (IBCI) containing height information of the scanned surface. The DOM captures the IBCI, and performs a backward optical process of optically condensing the captured IBCI to form an elongated light pattern. The backward optical process is an inverse of the forward one. A slit spatially filters the elongated light pattern to form an output light line. A height profile of the scanned surface is obtained by analyzing a spectral content at each point of the output light line.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2022Date of Patent: February 4, 2025Assignee: Hong Kong Applied Science and Technology Research Institute Company LimitedInventors: Jinbo Jiang, Steaphan Si Fan Xie, Yong Chi
