SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING MACHINE VISION USING DIFFUSE STRUCTURED LIGHT

摘要

Systems for performing machine vision using diffuse structured light comprising: a linear diffuser having an axis of diffusion; a light source that projects an illumination pattern through the linear diffuser and onto a scene, wherein the illumination pattern has transiationai symmetry in a. direction of translation that is aligned with the axis of diffusion; and an image sensor that detects tight reflecting from the scene and that outputs signals corresponding to the detected light.
