Embodiments of the present invention may be used to perform measurement of surfaces, such as external and internal surfaces of the human body, in full-field and in 3-D. Embodiments of the present invention may include an electromagnetic radiation source, which may be configured to project electromagnetic radiation onto a surface. The electromagnetic radiation source may be configured to project the electromagnetic radiation in a pattern corresponding to a spatial signal modulation algorithm. The electromagnetic radiation source may also be configured to project the electromagnetic radiation at a frequency suitable for transmission through the media in which the radiation is projected. An image sensor may be configured to capture image data representing the projected pattern. An image-processing module may be configured to receive the captured image data from the image sensor and to calculate a full-field, 3-D representation of the surface using the captured image data and the spatial signal modulation algorithm. A display device may be configured to display the full-field, 3-D representation of the surface.
A system for full-field three-dimensional imaging, the system comprising:
The system 1, wherein the electromagnetic radiation source is configured to project electromagnetic radiation using a frequency that enables the image sensor to capture image data in liquid media.
The system 1, wherein the electromagnetic radiation source is configured to project electromagnetic radiation using a frequency that enables the image sensor to capture image data in gaseous media.
An apparatus for full-field three-dimensional imaging, the apparatus comprising:
A method for full-field three-dimensional imaging, the method comprising:
The method 19, wherein the electromagnetic radiation source is configured to project electromagnetic radiation using a frequency that enables the image sensor to capture image data in liquid media.
The method 19, wherein the electromagnetic radiation source is configured to project electromagnetic radiation using a frequency that enables the image sensor to capture image data in gaseous media.
