Chapter 3 Basic concept

This chapter illustrates basic concepts about the system.
3.1 3D scanner
The device captures 3D surface data of the object with certain methods. The
scanning methods can be divided into two categories, contact and non-contact
scanning. Our device is optical non-contact 3D scanner.
3.2 Image collection
Image collection is completed by camera

Click “Parameter” button on the camera panel, and camera parameter adjustment
dialog will pop up, shown as fig 3-1，exposure time and intensity gain can be adjusted
by the scroll bar。
The right side is the display area of the camera panel,shown as fig 3-1,you can adjust
the camera exposure time and scan background parameters
Figure 3-1 Parameter adjustment dialog

Synchro : Check the Synchro options, you can adjust the parameters of both
cameras simultaneously, and keep the parameters consistent.
Exposure time adjustment: Set the camera exposure time with software,range
1~10.Big value means the image is brighter in this condition. Exposure time should be
adjusted according to technician guidance.
Scan background display:Check the scan background options,The background of
the object being scanned becomes blue,blue indicates that the data in the area will not
be scanned,you can adjust the value by dragging the button,shown as fig 3-2，If you
want to scan the dark data, you can set the value to be small, and if you want to delete
a dark background, you can set the value higher.
13
Figure 3-2 The difference in the adjustment value
：Click the button, grab the current camera to display the image and save as;
: Click the button, show the camera window instructions.

Equipment model adjustment
Open the cover on the device before adjusting model. Two screws are on the side
of camera. Loosening the two screws to adjust the camera up and down. There are
another two fixed screws on the bottom of the camera and can be used to adjust the
camera left and right.
The size adjust: There are three group corresponding holes on the bottom of the
equipment. As figure 3-3, the inside two holes corresponding to the small model, the
middle two holes corresponding to the mid model, and the outside two holes
corresponding to the big model. For example, the user want adjust big model to small
model, he should remove the two cameras from outside two holes to inside two holes,
and then adjust the angle of the two cameras.
3.3 Camera lens parameter adjustment
Camera lens has two parameters which need adjust, clarity and aperture size,
14
Refer to figure 3-4, loosen “1”, rotate outer ring “A” to adjust camera clarity, loosen
“2”, rotate inner ring “B” to adjust camera aperture size.
Figure 3-4 Camera lens adjustment
tighten rotary knobs “1” and “2” after adjustment, otherwise measurement
accuracy will be affected. Adjustment should be done under technician guidance
of our company.
3.4 Camera calibration
Camera calibration is a process to get the functional relationship between 3D

coordinate of an object and the corresponding points on its image. Calibration system
which shown as fig 3-5 should be used in this process.
15
Figure 3-5 calibration block

Camera calibration is done by checking images of calibration system in different
positions. The system adopts plane calibration block, this calibration block should be
placed in different positions, and fill the view field of cameras as much as possible.
Some other requirements are as follows:
(1) Adjusting exposure can reveal black dots to its clearest condition for
human eye to distinguish.
(2) In each position, four big dots must be seen. Take as much small dots as
possible in the screen.
(3) What displays in the first image with calibration block is: in all 4 big
dots, three collinear big dots is below the fourth one. By doing so, the
default display position of the 3D coordinates we get eventually will
basically be the same as what seen in the image.
Accuracy of the camera calibration is the key for system scanning

accuracy. Recalibration should be done to ensure device accuracy after 2
cameras change positions or after long-distance transportation or severe
vibration occurs during operation.
3.5 Software usage mode
The software usage mode includes scan mode and light pen mode.
Scan mode is used for 3D Scan system. When building a new project, three
modes can be selected.
⚫ Scan and registration mode
16
For big objects that complete data cannot be collected once, reference points can
be pasted on the object to complete the object data with scan and registration mode.
Attentions should be paid to the following issues during reference point alignment:
（1）Reference point should be pasted on a plane surface or curved surface with
small curvature change.
（2）Do not line the reference points.
（3）Between successive two scan, communal reference points should be at least
4, Due to image quality, shooting angles etc., some reference points can't be
identified correctly. Thus it is suggested to use more reference points, normally
6-8.
⚫ Single scan mode

For some objects, all the data needed can be obtained after one single
scanning. Under this condition, choose single scan mode( no reference point is
needed under this mode)
⚫ Targets mode
For some big objects, measuring error will be enlarged by accumulated
errors. In order to control the integrated error, frame should be established by
using targets mode before measurement. And then select the scan and registration
mode for scanning.
3.6 File format for 3D data
Common 3D data formats are ASC, STL, DXF，IGES, OBJ etc. In this system,
we output ASC，STL and DGM files. All of these can be used by other software to get
what user requires.

of calibration board.
64
Figure 6-15 White panel calibration
Make sure the reverse side of calibration board is clear and scratch free during
white panel calibration, otherwise accuracy of the scanned data will be affected. Take
as much white panel as possible into the camera during calibration ,otherwise no data
will show in place not calibrated.
Detailed calibration methods: The down most button is for panel calibration. Five
times calibration is required. The distance between measuring head to while panel
should be from near to far. Only data in these five panel positions is accurate.
For the first panel calibration position, align the cross to the center, move the
device downward for 3 circles, shoot the first calibration panel.
For the second panel calibration position, move the device upward for 1.5 circles,
shoot the second calibration panel.
For the third panel calibration position, move the device upward for another1.5 circles
of Position 2, shoot the third calibration panel(the cross is aligned to the center)
For the forth panel calibration position, move the device upward for another1.5 circles
of Position 3, shoot the forth calibration panel.
For the fifth panel calibration position, move the device upward for 1.5 circles of
Position 4, shoot the second calibration panel.(Upward for 3 circles with cross aligned
to the center)
To sum up, the first and the fifth position, the second and the forth position are
all aligned to the center based on the third position( best position with cross aligned to
the center). After taking pictures of all five positions, scanning can be performed.
Only data in these positions is correct during scanning. Incorrect will be deleted
automatically. That is to say, no data will be read in places beyond ±3 circles of
calibration area . For small calibration panel with ±2 circles calibrated(one circle
means 1 interval), no data will be read in places beyond ±2 circles of calibration area.
Click “Return” on work pane, the following dialog will pop up.

6.5 Reference point alignment scan
Reference point alignment scan uses information on common points between two
shootings to align the data of two shootings. Before using reference points, analyze
the measured object first, and paste the reference points on appropriate positions. Data
needed should be captured after several times of scanning and alignment.
Notice for choosing appropriate positions for reference point:

(1) Reference points can only be pasted on the surface or place with small
curvature changes;
(2) There should be at least 4 common dots between every two scanning,
otherwise system shows alignment error.
Procedures for reference point alignment are as follows:

1． make sure that two cameras are in shoot model and the raster radiator is
open and blue light projected
2． confirm that the camera calibration is finished which means “camera.bin”
files can be found under“.\CalibData”
3． Analyze objects need to be scanned, and paste the reference points.
