TL;DR: This work presents a sinusoidal fringe generation technique that utilizes slightly defocused binary fringe projection, a spatial version of the well-known pulse-width modulation (PWM) technique of electrical engineering that allows it to overcome the gamma problem in the output light intensity.
Abstract: Shape measurements by fringe projection methods require high-quality sinusoidal fringes. We present a sinusoidal fringe generation technique that utilizes slightly defocused binary fringe projection. The proposed method is a spatial version of the well-known pulse-width modulation (PWM) technique of electrical engineering. PWM is easy to implement using off-the-shelf projectors, and it allows us to overcome the gamma problem (i.e., the nonlinear projector response) in the output light intensity. We will demonstrate that, with a small defocusing level--lower than with other techniques proposed in the literature--a high-quality sinusoidal pattern is obtained. Validation experiments using a commercial video projector are presented.

TL;DR: Both simulation and experimental results show the phase error is always less than 0.6% even when the fringe stripes are wide and the projector is nearly focused, so the binary dithering technique can be used to conquer this challenge.
Abstract: The previously proposed binary defocusing technique and its variations have proven successful for high-quality three-dimensional (3D) shape measurement when fringe stripes are relatively narrow, but they suffer if fringe stripes are wide. This paper proposes to utilize the binary dithering technique to conquer this challenge. Both simulation and experimental results show the phase error is always less than 0.6% even when the fringe stripes are wide and the projector is nearly focused.
