Abstract: The patent discloses a differential phase contrast (DPC) quantitative phase microscopy method based on the optimal illumination pattern design. Firstly, the optimal illumination pattern corresponding to the isotropic phase transfer function of DPC quantitative phase imaging is derived, which is determined as a semi-annular illumination pattern with the illumination numerical aperture NAill equal to the numerical aperture NAobj of the objective lens. The illumination intensity distribution varies with the cosine of the illumination angle, and it can be expressed as S(θ)=cos(θ). This patent effectively compensates for the frequency loss of phase transfer, not only the high-frequency responses of PTF are enhanced, but also the transfer responses of low-frequency phase information is significantly improved. As a result, the optimal illumination scheme ensures the correctness and achieves high resolution phase reconstruction, while the number of illuminations is reduced to a minimum of two, which greatly increases the imaging speed, allowing for real-time dynamic, high-correctness, high-resolution phase imaging results.

Abstract: A single-shot differential phase contrast quantitative phase imaging method based on color multiplexing illumination. A color multiplexing illumination solution is used to realize single-shot differential phase contrast quantitative phase imaging. In the single-shot color multiplexing illumination solution, three illumination wavelengths of red, green, and blue are used to simultaneously illuminate a sample, and the information of the sample in multiple directions is converted into intensity information on different channels of a color image. By performing channel separation on this color image, the information about the sample at different spatial frequencies can be obtained. Such a color multiplexing illumination solution requires only one acquired image, thus enhancing the transfer response of the phase transfer function of single-shot differential phase contrast imaging in the entire frequency range, and achieving real-time dynamic quantitative phase imaging with a high contrast, a high resolution, and a high stability. In addition, an alternate illumination strategy is provided, so that a completely isotropic imaging resolution at the limit acquisition speed of the camera can be achieved.

Abstract: A calibration method for fringe projection systems based on plane mirrors. Firstly, two mirrors are placed behind the tested object. Through the reflection of mirrors, the camera can image the measured object from the front and other two perspectives, so as to obtain 360-degree two-dimensional information of the measured object. The projector projects three sets of phase-shifting fringe patterns with frequencies of 1, 8, and 64. The camera captures the fringe image to obtain an absolute phase map with a frequency of 64 by using the phase-shifting method and the temporal phase unwrapping algorithm. By using the calibration parameters between the projector and the camera, the absolute phase map can be converted into three-dimensional information of the measured object. Then, the mirror calibration is realized by capturing a set of 3D feature point pairs, so that the 3D information from different perspectives is transformed into a unified world coordinate system. The calibration method does not need to artificially fix the feature pattern on plane mirrors, only needs to capture a set of 3D feature point pairs by the camera to directly realize the mirror calibration that it avoids the loss of measurement accuracy and realizes high-precision panoramic three-dimensional measurement.

Abstract: The invention discloses a three-dimensional (3D) measurement method based on end-to-end deep learning for speckle projection. First, the speckle pattern was projected by the projector and collected simultaneously by the stereo camera. The speckle images after stereo rectification are fed into the stereo matching network. A feature extraction sub-network based on shared weights processes the speckle images to obtain a series of low-resolution 3D feature tensors, The feature tensor is fed into the saliency object detection sub-network to detect foreground information in the speckle images, producing a full-resolution valid mask map. A 4D matching cost volume is generated using the feature tensor of both views based on the candidate disparity range, filtered by a series of 3D convolutional layers to achieve cost aggregation, so that the initial disparity map is obtained by disparity regression. The final disparity map is obtained by combining the mask map and the initial disparity map to achieve a single-frame, robust, and absolute 3D shape measurement. The invention achieves a single-frame, robust, and absolute 3D shape measurement by projecting a single speckle pattern.
