The invention relates to a method for capturing images of a preferably structured surface of an object, using at least one line-scan camera for scanning the surface, wherein the surface is illuminated in a structured manner and wherein for reconstruction of the surface a time-oriented evaluation and/or spatial evaluation of acquired images is effected optionally taking into account a relative movement between the line-scan camera and the surface. Said method is carried out by a device for capturing images of a preferably structured surface of an object.

Method for capturing images of a preferably structured surface of an object and device for image capture

The aim of the invention is a quick and very precise reconstruction of an object. This is achieved by a device and a method for detecting an image of a preferably structured surface of an object (), comprising at least one pattern projection unit for illuminating the object () and at least one imaging unit () for capturing images of projected patterns. A temporal and/or spatial analysis of received images or image sequences is carried out in order to reconstruct the surface. The at least one pattern projection unit is designed to generate patterns using a diffraction of light on an optical grating. Furthermore, the method for detecting images is characterized in that by using the temporal and/or spatial analysis of the captured images or image sequences, corresponding pixels are ascertained by means of algorithms, said pixels together with an imaging function allowing a triangulation of surface points.

Device and method for detecting an image of a preferably structured surface of an object

According to the invention, a method for detecting and measuring local shape deviations in flat, curved, or domed surfaces of a test object, wherein three-dimensional measurement data (D) of the surfaces are evaluated by means of an evaluating apparatus, is designed and further developed, with regard to nondestructive testing of test objects with objective and easy-to-interpret assessment results, in such a way that the evaluating apparatus uses at least one virtual filter element as a concave filter for detecting concave sub-areas in flat or convex surfaces and/or as a convex filter for detecting convex sub-areas in flat or concave surfaces, that the filter element determines magnitudes of the shape deviations, and that said magnitudes are output by means of an outputting apparatus as measured values. The invention specifies a device for performing a corresponding method.
