Explanation of Measuring Principle

Measuring Principle

The VIVID 9i uses the light-stripe method to emit a horizontal stripe light through a cylindrical lens to the ob-
ject. The reflected light from the object is received by the CCD, and then converted by triangulation into dis-
tance information.
This process is repeated by scanning the stripe light vertically on the object surface using a Galvano mirror, to
obtain a 3D image data of the object.
In addition, a color image of the object is also obtained by scanning the CCD through a RGB filter while the
stripe light is not emitted. (A band pass filter is used when stripe light is emitted.)
