The article deals with optical systems suitable for distance measurement. Contactless distance measurement must be implemented, for example, when detecting the presence of persons and objects in the monitored area. In industry, there are increased demands on measurement uncertainty using these systems. In these cases, verification and calibration of these measurement systems are also necessary.

The demand for extensive gear shape measurements with single-digit µm uncertainty is growing. Tactile standard gear tests are precise but limited in speed. Recently, faster optical gear shape measurement systems have been examined. Optical gear shape measurements are challenging due to potential deviation sources such as the tilt angles between the surface normal and the sensor axis, the varying surface curvature, and the surface properties. Currently, the full potential of optical gear shape measurement systems is not known. Therefore, laser triangulation and confocal-chromatic gear shape mea

Absolute distance measurement is a field of research with a large variety of applications. Laser triangulation is a well-tested and developed technique using geometric relations to calculate the absolute distance to an object. The advantages of laser triangulation include its simple and cost-effective setup with yet a high achievable accuracy and resolution in short distances. A main problem of the technology is that even small changes of the optomechanical setup, e.g., due to thermal expansion, lead to significant measurement errors.

Water temperature and salinity are key parameters in many fields such as industry, forestry and agriculture. In this paper, we, theoretically and experimentally, demonstrate a method which is capable of water temperature and salinity measurement based on a laser frequency comb at 518 nm. We have developed a simple Michelson interferometer system. By scanning a mirror on a precision displacement platform, a pair of cross-correlation patterns can be obtained. The real-time optical distance information from these cross-correlation patterns can be used to calculate the optical distance difference

Abstract:
In this study, we introduce a new calibration method for underwater optical stereo scanners. It uses air calibration, additional underwater parameters, and extended camera modeling. The new methodology can be applied to both passive photogrammetric and structured light three-dimensional (3D) scanning systems. The novel camera model uses a variable principal distance depending on the radial distance to the principal point instead of two-dimensional distortion functions. This allows for an initial improvement of 3D reconstruction quality. In a second step, certain underwater-specific parameters—

The authors present the results of longtime research on the development and improvement of a passive geodetic rangefinder based on the inbasis method of distance measurement. Actually, active laser range finders are not always effective at field works. An original compact optical scheme of a passive rangefinder based on a theodolite telescope and a mould photo receiver with application of digital methods for coordinate calculation is proposed. The distance and dimensions of the object are defined. The former is identified by the shift between the images on the horizontal axis. The merit of suc

Abstract The paper describes a method for optical measurement of oscillation of blades in a linear cascade designed for flutter research. The method uses laser triangulation, which measures the distance between the sensor and the oscillation object. The distance can be recalculated to angular displacement of the blade. However, the relation is nonlinear due to the curvature of the blade. The nonlinear dependence between the distance and angular displacement is derived and quantified analytically. The paper further analyzes the influence of light refraction in the optical window, surface qualit

Optical measuring systems came to offer new ways to determine distances, deformations or vibrations through more accurate and greater range methods. Technological progress has allowed a significant improvement of several components, including the optical ones. Thus, the development of essential measurement methods is crucial to keep up with technological advances.In this paper, the three basic methods of measurement are studied – triangulation, telemetry and interferometry, covering their main applications, advantages and disadvantages, and theoretically substantiating each of the methods.

Abstract:
Abstract To obtain the world coordinates of a measured object in camera measurement, a certain number of image control points should be established around the detected object as fiducial points for data processing. The precision of a fiducial point directly determines the measurement accuracy of the measured object in the camera measurement. Fiducial points in camera measurement are widely used in various fields of measurement, such as aerial surveys, close-range surveys, and 3D reconstruction. In addition, a fiducial point generally adopts an encoding structure to reduce the search cost in th

Abstract:
Tracking the kinematics of human movement usually requires the use of equipment that constrains the user within a room (e.g., optical motion capture systems), or requires the use of a conspicuous body-worn measurement system (e.g., inertial measurement units (IMUs) attached to each body segment). This paper presents a novel Lie group constrained extended Kalman filter to estimate lower limb kinematics using IMU and inter-IMU distance measurements in a reduced sensor count configuration.

Abstract:
A fiber-optic low-coherence interferometry system capable of absolute distance measurement is proposed. Light emitted from a broadband light source is split by a fiber-optic Michelson interferometer. When the optical path difference between the measurement arm and the reference arm falls within the coherence length of the light source, interference occurs. By demodulating the interference signal, the zero optical path difference (ZOPD) position can be obtained. The reference mirror is mounted on a reference arm translation stage to scan and locate the ZOPD positions of different measurement su

Abstract:
Frequency estimation is often the basis of various measurement techniques, among which optical distance measurement stands out. One of the most used techniques is interpolated fast Fourier transform due to its simplicity, combined with good performance. In this work, we study the limits of this technique in the case of real signals, with reference to a particular interferometric technique known as self-mixing interferometry. The aim of this research is the better understanding of frequency estimation performances in real applications, together with guidance on how to improve them in specific o
