TLDR
An automatic method for three-dimensional (3-D) shape recognition that combines the Fourier transform profilometry technique with a real-time recognition setup such as the joint transform correlator (JTC).
Abstract
An automatic method for three-dimensional (3-D) shape recognition is proposed. It combines the Fourier transform profilometry technique with a real-time recognition setup such as the joint transform correlator (JTC). A grating is projected onto the object surface resulting in a distorted grating pattern. Since this pattern carries information about the depth and the shape of the object, their comparison provides a method for recognizing 3-D objects in real time. A two-cycle JTC is used for this purpose. Experimental results demonstrate the theory and show the utility of the new proposed method.

Three-dimensional object recognition by use of digital holography

TL;DR: A technique for performing three-dimensional pattern recognition by use of in-line digital holography, where the complex amplitude distribution generated by a 3D object at an arbitrary plane located in the Fresnel diffraction region is recorded by phase-shifting interferometry.

Compression of digital holograms for three-dimensional object reconstruction and recognition

TL;DR: This work quantifies the number of Fourier coefficients that can be removed from the hologram domain, and the lowest level of quantization achievable, without incurring significant loss in correlation performance or significant error in the reconstructed object domain.

Shift-invariant three-dimensional object recognition by means of digital holography

TL;DR: An optoelectronic method to analyze three-dimensional scenes that is able to detect the presence, and also the position and orientation, of a reference 3D object and allows for a small out-of-plane rotation.

Review of three-dimensional holographic imaging by multiple-viewpoint-projection based methods

TL;DR: Methods of generating multiple viewpoint projection holograms of three-dimensional (3-D) realistic objects illuminated by incoherent white light are reviewed, and the proposed hybrid optical-digital process can yield novel types of holograms such as the modified Fresnel hologram and the protected correlation hologram.

TL;DR: A new computer-based technique for automatic 3-D shape measurement is proposed and verified by experiments that has a much higher sensitivity than the conventional moire technique and is capable of fully automatic distinction between a depression and an elevation on the object surface.
