Effect of the modulation transfer function of a digital image-acquisition device on phase-measuring profilometry

Xiang Zhou, Xianyu Su

Open publisher page 10 citations

Abstract

Systematic errors in phase-measuring profilometry that are introduced by the modulation transfer function of a digital image-acquisition device are analyzed. New phase expressions and phase-deviation formulas are given. The results for simulations and experiments demonstrate that the algorithm of phase-measuring profilometry cannot be regarded as a point-to-point operation. To obtain precise results, an optimum scheme for setting the measurement system is also proposed.
