Abstract

Range cameras that determine both range and intensity at each pixel has matured in the last decade and is on the verge of revolutionizing the metrology market in retail, automotive, aerospace and many other. In this paper, we present an algorithm for measuring 3D geometry (height, width and depth) of rigid object using Time of Flight (TOF) camera. The method exploits geometrical structure of object such that intensity and range image compliments each other for a reliable measurement. We discuss the performance of algorithm under varying operating conditions.
