Abstract :
This paper presents the DLR Laser Stripe Profiler as a component of the DLR multisensory Hand-Guided Device for 3D modeling. After modeling the reconstruction process, we propose a novel method for laser plane self-calibration based on the assessment of the deformations the miscalibration leads to. In addition, the requirement for absence of optical filtering implies the development of a robust stripe segmentation algorithm. Experiments demonstrate the validity and applicability of the approaches.
