3D reconstruction of complex dielectric function of the glass during the femtosecond micro-fabrication

We measure complex amplitude of scattered wave in the far field, and justify theoretically and numerically solution of the inverse scattering problem. This allows single-shot reconstructing of dielectric function distribution during direct femtosecond laser micro-fabrication.

3D Reconstruction of the complex dielectric function of glass during femtosecond laser micro-fabrication

We report on a new technique to reconstruct the 3D dielectric function change in transparent dielectric materials and the application of the technique for on-line monitoring of refractive index modification in BK7 glass during direct femtosecond laser microfabrication. The complex optical field scattered from the modified region is measured using two-beam, single-shot interferogram and the distribution of the modified refractive index is reconstructed by numerically solving the inverse scattering problem in Born approximation. The optical configuration suggested is further development of digital holographic microscopy (DHM). It takes advantage of high spatial resolution and almost the same optical paths for both interfering beams, and allows ultrafast time resolution.

Practical 3D reconstruction based on photometric stereo

Photometric Stereo is a powerful image based 3D reconstruction technique that has recently been used to obtain very high quality reconstructions. However, in its classic form, Photometric Stereo suffers from two main limitations: Firstly, one needs to obtain images of the 3D scene under multiple different illuminations. As a result the 3D scene needs to remain static during illumination changes, which prohibits the reconstruction of deforming objects. Secondly, the images obtained must be from a single viewpoint. This leads to depth-map based 2.5 reconstructions, instead of full 3D surfaces. The aim of this Chapter is to show how these limitations can be alleviated, leading to the derivation of two practical 3D acquisition systems: The first one, based on the powerful Coloured Light Photometric Stereo method can be used to reconstruct moving objects such as cloth or human faces. The second, permits the complete 3D reconstruction of challenging objects such as porcelain vases. In addition to algorithmic details, the Chapter pays attention to practical issues such as setup calibration, detection and correction of self and cast shadows. We provide several evaluation experiments as well as reconstruction results. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

In-situ measurement and the reconstruction in 3D of femtosecond inscription induced complex permittivity modification in glass

We demonstrate a new approach to in-situ measurement of femtosecond laser pulse induced changes in glass enabling the reconstruction in 3D of the induced complex permittivity modification. The technique can be used to provide single shot and time resolved quantitative measurements with a micron scale spatial resolution.

Live 3D shape reconstruction, recognition and registration

We present a video-based system which interactively captures the geometry of a 3D object in the form of a point cloud, then recognizes and registers known objects in this point cloud in a matter of seconds (fig. 1). In order to achieve interactive speed, we exploit both efficient inference algorithms and parallel computation, often on a GPU. The system can be broken down into two distinct phases: geometry capture, and object inference. We now discuss these in further detail. © 2011 IEEE.

Real-time 3D shape sensing and reconstruction scheme based upon fibre optic bragg gratings

An array of FBG curvature sensors are wavelength-interrogated and the recovered data combined with a three-dimensional algorithm to reconstruct in real time the enveloped object with a 1% to 9% volumetric error. © 2012 OSA.

Arbitrary real-time three-dimensional corporal object sensing and reconstruction scheme

A real-time three-dimensional (3D) object sensing and reconstruction scheme is presented that can be applied on any arbitrary corporeal shape. Operation is demonstrated on several calibrated objects. The system uses curvature sensors based upon in-line fiber Bragg gratings encapsulated in a low-temperature curing synthetic silicone. New methods to quantitatively evaluate the performance of a 3D object-sensing scheme are developed and appraised. It is shown that the sensing scheme yields a volumetric error of 1% to 9%, depending on the object.
