Fast parallel 3-D stereo vision measurement system using an artificial neural network

摘要

With a Damman grating and an artificial neural network-back-propagation network (BP network), a fast and parallel 3-D non-contact measurement method using a stereo vision system is introduced. Some detail discussions on optical setup, data acquisition and some method to raise the training precision of BP network are proposed. Experiments have been completed and the results proved the feasibility of the method. Using the method, one can get the object profile information rapidly, deal with data almost parallel and need not to consider the effect of lens distortion.
