Abstract
A method of performing surface profilometry includes receiving one or more polarization raw frames of a printed layer of a physical object undergoing additive manufacturing, the one or more polarization raw frames being captured at different polarizations by one or more polarization cameras, extracting one or more polarization feature maps in one or more polarization representation spaces from the one or more polarization raw frames, obtaining a coarse layer depth map of the printed layer, generating one or more surface-normal images based on the coarse layer depth map and the one or more polarization feature maps, and generating a 3D reconstruction of the printed layer based on the one or more surface-normal images.
