A flexile and high precision calibration method for binocular structured light scanning system.

ABSTRACT: 3D (three-dimensional) structured light scanning system is widely used in the field of reverse engineering, quality inspection, and so forth. Camera calibration is the key for scanning precision. Currently, 2D (two-dimensional) or 3D fine processed calibration reference object is usually applied for high calibration precision, which is difficult to operate and the cost is high. In this paper, a novel calibration method is proposed with a scale bar and some artificial coded targets placed randomly in the measuring volume. The principle of the proposed method is based on hierarchical self-calibration and bundle adjustment. We get initial intrinsic parameters from images. Initial extrinsic parameters in projective space are estimated with the method of factorization and then upgraded to Euclidean space with orthogonality of rotation matrix and rank 3 of the absolute quadric as constraint. Last, all camera parameters are refined through bundle adjustment. Real experiments show that the proposed method is robust, and has the same precision level as the result using delicate artificial reference object, but the hardware cost is very low compared with the current calibration method used in 3D structured light scanning system.

Structured-light surface scanning system to evaluate breast morphology in standing and supine positions.

Project description:Breast shapes are affected by gravitational loads and deformities. Measurements obtained in the standing position may not correlate well with measurements in the supine position, which is more representative of patient position during breast surgery. A dual color 3D surface imaging system capable of scanning patients in both supine and standing positions was developed to evaluate the effect of changes in body posture on breast morphology. The system was evaluated with breast phantoms to assess accuracy, then tested on ten subjects in three body postures to assess its effectiveness as a clinical tool. The accuracy of the system was within 0.4 mm on average across the model. For the human study, there was no effect of body posture on breast volumes (p value > 0.05), but we observed an effect of completeness of breast scans on body posture (p value < 0.05). Post-hoc tests showed that the supine position and the standing position with hands at the waist differed significantly (p value < 0.05). This study shows that the system can quantitatively evaluate the effect of subject postures, and thereby has the potential to be used to investigate peri-operative changes in breast morphology.

Protocol for hybrid structured-light three-dimensional scanning and modeling of human postmortem brains.

Project description:Despite numerous neuropathological criteria for the evaluation of microscopic tissue slides, there are no systemic standards for sectioning postmortem human brain tissue. Here, we present a protocol for postmortem brain hybrid structured-light scanning to facilitate 3D printing of sectioning matrices. We describe steps for tissue preparation, 3D scanning and printing, and matrix-guided sectioning. This protocol can be used for streamlining tissue histopathology as well as in brain morphology volumetric analyses and applications in medical education. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Barannikov et al.1.

High precision structured H∞ control of a piezoelectric nanopositioning platform.

Project description:The inherent weakly damped resonant modes of the piezoelectric nanopositioning platform and the presence of model uncertainty seriously affect the performance of the system. A structured H∞ design is used in this paper to solve the accuracy and robustness problems respectively using a two-loop control structure. The multiple performance requirements of the system are constituted into an H∞ optimization matrix containing multi-dimensional performance diagonal decoupling outputs, and an inner damping controller d is set according to the damping of the resonant modes; the second-order robust feedback controller is preset in the inner loop to improve the robustness of the system; the tracking controller is connected in series in the outer loop to achieve high accuracy scanning; finally, the structured H∞ controller is designed to meet the multiple performance requirements. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed structured H∞ control, simulation comparison experiments are done with the integral resonant control (IRC) and H∞ controller. The results demonstrate that the designed structured H∞ controller achieves higher tracking accuracy compared to the IRC and H∞ controllers under grating input signals of 5, 10, and 20 Hz. Moreover, it has good robustness under 600g and 1000g loads and high frequency disturbances close to the resonant frequency of the system, meeting multiple performance requirements. Compared with the traditional H∞ control, yet with lower complexity and transparency, which is more suitable for engineering practice applications.

High-speed raster-scanning synchrotron serial microcrystallography with a high-precision piezo-scanner.

Project description:The Frontier Microfocus Macromolecular Crystallography (FMX) beamline at the National Synchrotron Light Source II with its 1 µm beam size and photon flux of 3 × 1012 photons s-1 at a photon energy of 12.66 keV has reached unprecedented dose rates for a structural biology beamline. The high dose rate presents a great advantage for serial microcrystallography in cutting measurement time from hours to minutes. To provide the instrumentation basis for such measurements at the full flux of the FMX beamline, a high-speed, high-precision goniometer based on a unique XYZ piezo positioner has been designed and constructed. The piezo-based goniometer is able to achieve sub-100 nm raster-scanning precision at over 10 grid-linepairs s-1 frequency for fly scans of a 200 µm-wide raster. The performance of the scanner in both laboratory and serial crystallography measurements up to the maximum frame rate of 750 Hz of the Eiger 16M's 4M region-of-interest mode has been verified in this work. This unprecedented experimental speed significantly reduces serial-crystallography data collection time at synchrotrons, allowing utilization of the full brightness of the emerging synchrotron radiation facilities.

Nanoscale heat transport analysis by scanning thermal microscopy: from calibration to high-resolution measurements.

Project description:Scanning thermal microscopy (SThM) is a powerful technique for thermal characterization. However, one of the most challenging aspects of thermal characterization is obtaining quantitative information on thermal conductivity with nanoscale lateral resolution. We used this technique with the cross-point calibration method to obtain the thermal contact resistance, R c, and thermal exchange radius, b, using thermo-resistive Pd/Si3N4 probes. The cross-point curves correlate the dependence of R c and b with the sample's thermal conductivity. We implemented a 3ω-SThM method in which reference samples with known thermal conductivity were used in the calibration and validation process to guarantee optimal working conditions. We achieved values of R c = 0.94 × 106 ± 0.02 K W-1 and b = 2.41 × 10-7 ± 0.02 m for samples with a low thermal conductivity (between 0.19 and 1.48 W m-1 K-1). These results show a large improvement in spatial resolution over previously reported data for the Wollaston probes (where b ∼ 2.8 μm). Furthermore, the contact resistance with the Pd/Si3N4 is ∼20× larger than reported for a Wollaston wire probe (with 0.45 × 105 K W-1). These thermal parameters were used to determine the unknown thermal conductivity of thermoelectric films of Ag2Se, Ag2-x Se, Cu2Se (smooth vs. rough surface), and Bi2Te3, obtaining, in units of W m-1 K-1, the values of 0.63 ± 0.07, 0.69 ± 0.15, 0.79 ± 0.03, 0.82 ± 0.04, and 0.93 ± 0.12, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time these microfabricated probes have been calibrated using the cross-point method to perform quantitative thermal analysis with nanoscale resolution. Moreover, this work shows high-resolution thermal images of the V 1ω and V 3ω signals, which can offer relevant information on the material's heat dissipation.

A Robust Laser Stripe Extraction Method for Structured-Light Vision Sensing.

Project description:Environmental sensing is a key technology for the development of unmanned cars, drones and robots. Many vision sensors cannot work normally in an environment with insufficient light, and the cost of using multiline LiDAR is relatively high. In this paper, a novel and inexpensive visual navigation sensor based on structured-light vision is proposed for environment sensing. The main research contents of this project include: First, we propose a laser-stripe-detection neural network (LSDNN) that can eliminate the interference of reflective noise and haze noise and realize the highly robust extraction of laser stripes region. Then we use a gray-gravity approach to extract the center of laser stripe and used structured-light model to reconstruct the point clouds of laser center. Then, we design a single-line structured-light sensor, select the optimal parameters for it and build a car-platform for experimental evaluation. This approach was shown to be effective in our experiments and the experimental results show that this method is more accurate and robust in complex environment.

High-Precision Photothermal Ablation Using Biocompatible Palladium Nanoparticles and Laser Scanning Microscopy.

Project description:Herein, we report a straightforward method for the scalable preparation of Pd nanoparticles (Pd-NPs) with reduced inherent cytotoxicity and high photothermal conversion capacity. These Pd-NPs are rapidly taken up by cells and able to kill labeled cancer cells upon short exposure to near-infrared (NIR) light. Following cell treatment with Pd-NPs, ablated areas were patterned with high precision by laser scanning microscopy, allowing one to perform cell migration assays with unprecedented accuracy. Using coherent Raman microscopy, cells containing Pd-NPs were simultaneously ablated and imaged. This novel methodology was combined with intravital imaging to mediate microablation of cancerous tissue in tumor xenografts in mice.

Calibration of Granier-Type (TDP) Sap Flow Probes by a High Precision Electronic Potometer.

Project description:Thermal dissipation probe (TDP) method (Granier, 1985) is widely used to estimate tree transpiration (i.e., the water evaporated from the leaves) because it is simple to build, easy to install, and relatively inexpensive. However, the universality of the original calibration has been questioned and, in many cases, proved to be inaccurate. Thus, when the TDP is used in a new species, specific tests should be carried out. Our aim was to propose a new method for improving the accuracy of TDP on trees in the field. Small hazelnut trees (diameter at breast height 5 cm) were used for the experiment. The response of TDP sensors was compared with a reference water uptake measured with an electronic potometer system provided with a high precision liquid flow meter. We equipped three stems where we measured the sap flow density, the sapwood area (by using fuchsine), the total tree water uptake (reference), and the main meteorological parameters during summer 2018. Results confirmed that the original Granier's calibration underestimated the effective tree transpiration (relative error about -60%). We proposed a new equation for improving the measurement accuracy within an error of about 4%. The system proposed appeared an easier solution compared to potted trees and particularly suitable for orchards, thus contributing to improve the irrigation management worldwide.

SLAM-Based Self-Calibration of a Binocular Stereo Vision Rig in Real-Time.

Project description:The calibration problem of binocular stereo vision rig is critical for its practical application. However, most existing calibration methods are based on manual off-line algorithms for specific reference targets or patterns. In this paper, we propose a novel simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)-based self-calibration method designed to achieve real-time, automatic and accurate calibration of the binocular stereo vision (BSV) rig's extrinsic parameters in a short period without auxiliary equipment and special calibration markers, assuming the intrinsic parameters of the left and right cameras are known in advance. The main contribution of this paper is to use the SLAM algorithm as our main tool for the calibration method. The method mainly consists of two parts: SLAM-based construction of 3D scene point map and extrinsic parameter calibration. In the first part, the SLAM mainly constructs a 3D feature point map of the natural environment, which is used as a calibration area map. To improve the efficiency of calibration, a lightweight, real-time visual SLAM is built. In the second part, extrinsic parameters are calibrated through the 3D scene point map created by the SLAM. Ultimately, field experiments are performed to evaluate the feasibility, repeatability, and efficiency of our self-calibration method. The experimental data shows that the average absolute error of the Euler angles and translation vectors obtained by our method relative to the reference values obtained by Zhang's calibration method does not exceed 0.5˚ and 2 mm, respectively. The distribution range of the most widely spread parameter in Euler angles is less than 0.2˚ while that in translation vectors does not exceed 2.15 mm. Under the general texture scene and the normal driving speed of the mobile robot, the calibration time can be generally maintained within 10 s. The above results prove that our proposed method is reliable and has practical value.
