Mesh-Based Shape Measurements with Stereocorrelation Principle and First Results

International audience; A mesh-based framework is developed by extending global stereocorrelation techniques to faceted surfaces with three-noded elements. A two-step self-calibration procedure is followed to determine the projection matrices of the stereo-rig and to update the nominal surface model to match the surface of interest. To prove the feasibility of mesh-based stereocorrelation, two different test parts are analyzed with the present techniques and compared to already validated optical procedures.
