Digital parallel grating stripes distributed with sine density are projected onto the raceway groove by a DLP projector, and distorting of stripes is happened on the raceway. Simultaneously, aided by three-step phase-shifting approach, three images covered by different stripes are obtained by a high-resolution CCD camera at the same location, thus a more accuracy local topography can be obtained. And then the bearing is rotated on a high precision computer controlled rotational stage. Three images are also obtained as the former step at next planned location triggered by the motor. After one cycle, all images information is combined through the mosaics. As a result, the 3D information of raceway groove can be gained. Not only geometric properties but also surface flaws can be extracted by software. A preliminary hardware system has been built, with which some geometric parameters have been extracted from reconstructed local topography.展开更多

Using a high-resolution UAV with a 20 MP (MegaPixels) sensor, four images of a brick wall test field were captured and processed in Agisoft Metashape, with resolutions compared against Leica T2002 theodolite measurements (1.0 mm accuracy). Advanced statistical methods (ANOVA (analysis of variance), Tukey tests, Monte Carlo simulations) and ground control points validated the results. Accuracy improved from 25 mm at 50 PPI to 5 mm at 150 PPI (p < 0.01), plateauing at 4 mm beyond 200 PPI, while 150 PPI reduced processing time by 62% compared to 300 PPI. Unlike prior studies, this research uniquely isolates resolution effects in a controlled civil engineering context, offering a novel 150 PPI threshold that balances precision and efficiency. This threshold supports Saudi Vision 2030’s smart infrastructure goals for megaprojects like NEOM, providing a scalable framework for global applications. Future research should leverage deep learning to optimize resolutions in dynamic environments.展开更多

Previous studies cannot realize 3D measurement of microseeping hydrocarbons from reservoirs to the surface, which made it difficult to understand the features and pathways of deep hydrocarbon microseepages. Understanding the processes of hydrocarbon microseepages will contribute to the acceptance and effectiveness of surface geochemistry. Based on a simplified geological model of hydrocarbon microseepages, including hydrocarbon reservoir, direct caprock, overlying strata and Quaternary sediments, this work established a 3D experimental system to simulate the mechanisms and processes of deep hydrocarbon microseepes extending to the surface. The dispersive halos of microseeping hydrocarbons in the subsurface were adequately described by using this 3D experimental system. Results indicate that different migration patterns of hydrocarbons above the point gas source within the simulated caprock and overlying strata can be reflected by the ratio of i-butane to n-butane （i-C4/n-C4）, which follow diffusion and infiltration （buoyancy） mechanisms. This is not the case for vertical measurement lines far from the point gas source. A vertical gas flow in the form of a plume was found during hydrocarbon microseepage. For sampling methods, the high-density grid sampling is favorable for delineating prospecting targets. Hydrocarbon infiltration or buoyancy flow occurs in the zones of infiltration clusters, coupling with a diffusion mechanism at the top of the water table and forming surface geochemical anomalies. These results are significant in understanding hydrocarbon microseepage and interpreting SGE data.展开更多

文摘A new 3D surface contouring and ranging system based on digital fringe projection and phase shifting technique is presented.Using the phase-shift technique,points cloud with high spatial resolution and limited accuracy can be generated.Stereo-pair images obtained from two cameras can be used to compute 3D world coordinates of a point using traditional active triangulation approach,yet the camera calibration is crucial.Neural network is a well-known approach to approximate a nonlinear system without an explicit physical model,in this work it is used to train the stereo vision application system to calculating 3D world coordinates such that the camera calibration can be bypassed.The training set for neural network consists of a variety of stereo-pair images and the corresponding 3D world coordinates.The picture elements correspondence problem is solved by using projected color-coded fringes with different orientations.Color imbalance is completely eliminated by the new color-coded method.Once the high accuracy correspondence of 2D images with 3D points is acquired,high precision 3D points cloud can be recognized by the well trained net.The obvious advantage of this approach is that high spatial resolution can be obtained by the phase-shifting technique and high accuracy 3D object point coordinates are achieved by the well trained net which is independent of the camera model works for any type of camera.Some experiments verified the performance of the method.

文摘Comprehensive radiation characteristics of polarized antenna are crucial in creating practical channel coefficients for next generation wireless communication system designs.Being currently supported within3 D geometry-based stochastic channel models(GSCM),field patterns are technically obtained by chamber measurement(or by its best fitting).However,in some channel related performance analysis scenarios,design insight can be crystallized better by starting the derivations with theoretical co-polarization and cross-polarization components.Specifically,these two components are mathematically linked with field patterns through the proposed polarization projection algorithm.In this manuscript,we focus on revealing the transformation criterion of polarization states between the antenna plane and the propagation plane.In practice,it makes retrieving the field patterns by electromagnetic computation possible.Meanwhile,the impact imposed by distinct antenna orientations is geometrically illustrated and consequently incorporated into the proposed algorithm.This will further facilitate flexible performance evaluation of related radio transmission technologies.Our conclusions are verified by the closed-form expression of the dipole field pattern(via an analytical approach) and by chamber measurement results.Moreover,we find that its 2D degenerative case is aligned with the definitions in 3^(rd) generation partnership project(3GPP)technical report 25.996.The most obvious benefit of the proposed algorithm is to significantly reduce the cost on generating channel coefficients in GSCM simulation.
文摘This study provides the first systematic evaluation of image resolution’s effect (50-300 PPI, pixels per inch) on UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle)-based digital close-range photogrammetry accuracy in civil engineering applications, such as infrastructure monitoring and heritage preservation. Using a high-resolution UAV with a 20 MP (MegaPixels) sensor, four images of a brick wall test field were captured and processed in Agisoft Metashape, with resolutions compared against Leica T2002 theodolite measurements (1.0 mm accuracy). Advanced statistical methods (ANOVA (analysis of variance), Tukey tests, Monte Carlo simulations) and ground control points validated the results. Accuracy improved from 25 mm at 50 PPI to 5 mm at 150 PPI (p < 0.01), plateauing at 4 mm beyond 200 PPI, while 150 PPI reduced processing time by 62% compared to 300 PPI. Unlike prior studies, this research uniquely isolates resolution effects in a controlled civil engineering context, offering a novel 150 PPI threshold that balances precision and efficiency. This threshold supports Saudi Vision 2030’s smart infrastructure goals for megaprojects like NEOM, providing a scalable framework for global applications. Future research should leverage deep learning to optimize resolutions in dynamic environments.

文摘Grating fringe projection 3D measurement techniques are extensively applied in various fields.However,in high dynamic range scenarios with significant surface reflectivity variations,uneven greyscale distribution may lead to phase errors and poor reconstruction results.To address this problem,an adaptive fringe projection method is introduced.The method involves projecting two sets of dark and light fringes onto the object,enabling the full-field projection intensity map to be generated adaptively based on greyscale analysis.First,dark fringes are projected onto the object to extend exposure time as long as possible without causing overexposure in the image.Subsequently,bright fringes are projected under the same exposure settings to detect overexposed pixels,and the greyscale distribution of these overexposed points from the previous dark fringe projection is analyzed to calculate the corresponding projection intensities.Finally,absolute phase information from orthogonal fringes is used for coordinate matching,enabling the generation of adaptive projection fringe patterns.Experiments on various high dynamic range objects show that compared to conventional fringe projection binocular reconstruction method,the proposed algorithm achieves complete reconstruction of high dynamic range surfaces and shows robust performance against phase calculation errors caused by overexposure and low modulation.

文摘The formation mechanisms and processes of geochemical anomalies used as proxies in surface geochemistry exploration （SGE） have not been well understood. Previous studies cannot realize 3D measurement of microseeping hydrocarbons from reservoirs to the surface, which made it difficult to understand the features and pathways of deep hydrocarbon microseepages. Understanding the processes of hydrocarbon microseepages will contribute to the acceptance and effectiveness of surface geochemistry. Based on a simplified geological model of hydrocarbon microseepages, including hydrocarbon reservoir, direct caprock, overlying strata and Quaternary sediments, this work established a 3D experimental system to simulate the mechanisms and processes of deep hydrocarbon microseepes extending to the surface. The dispersive halos of microseeping hydrocarbons in the subsurface were adequately described by using this 3D experimental system. Results indicate that different migration patterns of hydrocarbons above the point gas source within the simulated caprock and overlying strata can be reflected by the ratio of i-butane to n-butane （i-C4/n-C4）, which follow diffusion and infiltration （buoyancy） mechanisms. This is not the case for vertical measurement lines far from the point gas source. A vertical gas flow in the form of a plume was found during hydrocarbon microseepage. For sampling methods, the high-density grid sampling is favorable for delineating prospecting targets. Hydrocarbon infiltration or buoyancy flow occurs in the zones of infiltration clusters, coupling with a diffusion mechanism at the top of the water table and forming surface geochemical anomalies. These results are significant in understanding hydrocarbon microseepage and interpreting SGE data.

文摘Light field imaging technology can obtain three-dimensional(3D)information of a test surface in a single exposure.Traditional light field reconstruction algorithms not only take a long time to trace back to the original image,but also require the exact parameters of the light field system,such as the position and posture of a microlens array(MLA),which will cause errors in the reconstructed image if these parameters cannot be precisely obtained.This paper proposes a reconstruction algorithm for light field imaging based on the point spread function(PSF),which does not require prior knowledge of the system.The accurate PSF derivation process of a light field system is presented,and modeling and simulation were conducted to obtain the relationship between the spatial distribution characteristics and the PSF of the light field system.A morphology-based method is proposed to analyze the overlapping area of the subimages of light field images to identify the accurate spatial location of the MLA used in the system,which is thereafter used to accurately refocus light field imaging.A light field system is built to verify the algorithm’s effectiveness.Experimental results show that the measurement accuracy is increased over 41.0%compared with the traditional method by measuring a step standard.The accuracy of parameters is also improved through a microstructure measurement with a peak-to-valley value of 25.4%and root mean square value of 23.5%improvement.This further validates that the algorithm can effectively improve the refocusing efficiency and the accuracy of the light field imaging results with the superiority of refocusing light field imaging without prior knowledge of the system.The proposed method provides a new solution for fast and accurate 3D measurement based on a light field.

文摘With the goal of designing a biologically inspired robot that can hold a stable hover under internal and external disturbances.We designed a tailless Flapping-wing Micro Aerial Vehicle(FMAV)with onboard 3D velocity perception.In this way,the wind disturbance caused by the relative motion of the FMAV can be quantified in real time based on the established altitudinal dynamics model.For the rest of the total disturbance,an active disturbance rejection controller is proposed to estimate and suppress those disturbances.In comparison with the traditional PID controller,this proposed approach has been validated.The results show that,in the hovering flight with the internal unmodeled dynamics,the root-mean-square of height controlled is only 2.53 cm.Even with the different weights of loads mounting on the FMAV,the ascending trajectory of flights remains impressively consistent.In the forward flight with the external disturbance,the root-mean-square error of height controlled is 2.78 cm.When the FMAV flies over a ladder introducing an abrupt external disturbance,the maximum overshoot is only half of that controlled by the PID controller.To our best knowledge,this is the first demonstration of FMAVs with the capability of sensing motion-generated wind disturbance onboard and handling the internal and external disturbances in hover flight.
