Measuring technology and computer numerical control technology

摘要

A measuring apparatus of this invention comprises: a projector; a camera; a generator that generates, from a photographed image of a fringe pattern projected by the projector at a time of calibration onto each of surfaces, first tuples, each including coordinates of a point on a light receiving plane (LRP) of the camera, light intensity of the point and the height of the surface; a converter that converts the light intensity to a phase angle of the projected fringe pattern (PFP), and generates second tuples, each including the coordinates of the point on the LRP, the phase angle and the height of the surface; a hypersurface generator that generates data representing a tensor product type composite hypersurface (TPTCH) from data of the second tuples; an extractor that extracts data of third tuples, each including coordinates of a point on the LRP and light intensity from a photographed image of a fringe pattern projected by the projector at a time of measurement onto an object to be measured; a second converter that converts the light intensity to a phase angle of the PFP to generate data of fourth tuples, each including the coordinates of the point on the LRP and the phase angle; and an interpolator that carries out interpolation by using the data representing the TPTCH to generate height data corresponding to the data of the fourth tuple.
