A Calibration Method for a Self-Rotating, Linear-Structured-Light Scanning, Three-Dimensional Reconstruction System Based on Plane Constraints

This paper proposes a calibration method for a self-rotating, linear-structured-light (LSL) scanning, three-dimensional reconstruction system based on plane constraints. The point cloud of plane target collected by the self-rotating, LSL scanning, 3D reconstruction system should be constrained to the basic principle of the plane equation; it can quickly and accurately calibrate the position parameters between the coordinate system of the LSL module and the coordinate system of the self-rotating, LSL scanning, 3D reconstruction system. Additionally, the transformation equation could be established with the calibrated optimal position parameters. This paper obtains the above-mentioned position parameters through experiments and uses the calibrated self-rotating, LSL scanning, 3D reconstruction system to perform three-dimensional scanning and reconstruction of the test piece. The experimental results show that the calibration method can effectively improve the measurement accuracy of the system.
