Quantitative investigation of the validity conditions for the Beckmann-Kirchhoff scattering model (2022)
Journal Article

Approximate and rigorous methods are widely used to model light scattering from a surface. The boundary element method (BEM) is a rigorous model that accounts for polarization and multiple scattering effects. BEM is suitable to model the scattered li...

Autonomous image background removal for accurate and efficient close-range photogrammetry (2022)
Journal Article

Close-range photogrammetry can be used to reconstruct dense point clouds of an object with very high surface coverage, making it useful for manufacturing metrology tasks such as part inspection and validation. However, compared to competing technique... Read More about Autonomous image background removal for accurate and efficient close-range photogrammetry.

Evaluating parametric uncertainty using non-linear regression in fringe projection (2022)
Journal Article

Optical coordinate measurement systems, such as fringe projection systems, offer fast, high-density measurements of arbitrary surface topographies. The versatility, speed and information density of fringe projection measurements make them attractive...
