13. Exposure
The projected fringe pattern should be well recognizable over the entire measurement
plane (not too light/dark). This way, you obtain as few overdriven or underdriven pixels as
possible.
The Exposure time parameter enables you to adjust the exposure.
In the main view, switch from the 3D View to the Image data.
Switch to the Data acquisition tab.
Select Sensor settings > Pattern projection > Pattern.
Select a suitable exposure time in Sensor settings > Exposure.
Fig. 10 Example of an optimally selected exposure time
The distribution of gray values in the histogram should be approximately uniform with
the projected pattern. The number of overexposed and underexposed pixels should be
reduced to a minimum. The screens shown were created with the 3DInspect software from
Micro-Epsilon.
