3D Particle Position Measurement via the Defocusing Concept
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a 3D particle position measurement method based on the defocusing concept introduced by A.Pentland with a single camera. Different from the existing approaches, the blur circle is used to identify the blur extent for various defocused particles, and the depth-blur relation is formulated by the modified A.Pentland mathematical formula. And, an eight-step algorithm based on Circular Hough Transform and Quadrant Radius Histogram was given to calculate the 3D particle position. Experiments on real defocused particle images have demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed method for 3D particle position recovery, and the minimum Mean Absolute Error of depth is about 0.18 mm.

General defocusing particle tracking with applications in microfluidics
FIG. 1. The GDPTV method is based on a single-camera setup for determining the 3D particle positions via defocused particle images, where the particle images change as function of the depth coordinate. To get a target particle position, the particle image is compared to a set of calibration images by use of the normalized cross-correlation. The out-of-plane coordinate for the target particle is...
متن کاملThree-dimensional particle imaging by defocusing method with an annular aperture.
We propose an annular-aperture-based defocusing technique for three-dimensional (3D) particle metrology from a single camera view. This simple configuration has high optical efficiency and the ability to deal with overlapped defocused images. Initial results show that an uncertainty in depth of 23 microm can be achieved over a range of 10 mm for macroscopic systems. This method can also be appl...
متن کاملA method for three-dimensional particle sizing in two-phase flows
A method is devised for true three-dimensional (3D) particle sizing in two-phase systems. Based on a ray-optics approximation of the Mie scattering theory for spherical particles, and under given assumptions, the principle is applicable to intensity data from scatterers within arbitrary interrogation volumes. It requires knowledge of the particle 3D location and intensity, and of the spatial di...
متن کاملFlexible 3D shape measurement using projector defocusing: extended measurement range.
A recently proposed flexible 3D shape measurement technique using a defocused projector [Opt. Lett. 34, 3080 (2009)] shows great potential because of its elimination of projector's gamma calibration. However, it cannot handle step-height surfaces. I present here a technique to extend its measurement range to an arbitrary shape by integrating a binary coding method. A computational framework is ...

Defocusing effects in modulation transfer function (MTF) measurement of charge coupled device (CCD) cameras is the main focus of current paper. We introduce measuring Point-spread function (PSF) in order to calculate the MTF and further more we will study the shape of MTF and its cut-off frequency by adjusting the lens focusing in different locations.
