RESUMEN
Speckle patterns offer valuable insights into the surface characteristics or the characteristics of the light generating the speckle. One possible way to extract this information is via spectral speckle correlation (SSC). The cross-correlation between two speckle fields, generated at different wavelengths, can be used for example to determine the roughness of the illuminated surface. Taking defocused measurements of the surface or measuring on a tilted surface leads to a displacement between the speckle, which in turn affects the cross-correlation and leads to errors in the calculated roughness. In this work we present a model to determine the lateral speckle displacement for a change in wavelength in the case of subjective speckle and defocused, tilted objects. This model is therefore applicable to a wide range of applications and allows to estimate and correct for this speckle displacement. Experimental results show sub-pixel accuracy for object tilts up to ±7° and defocus distances up to ±25 mm.
RESUMEN
Digital holographic multiwavelength sensor systems integrated in the production line on multi-axis systems such as robots or machine tools are exposed to unknown, complex vibrations that affect the measurement quality. To detect vibrations during the early steps of hologram reconstruction, we propose a deep learning approach using a deep neural network trained to predict the standard deviation of the hologram phase. The neural network achieves 96.0% accuracy when confronted with training-like data while it achieves 97.3% accuracy when tested with data simulating a typical production environment. It performs similar to or even better than comparable classical machine learning algorithms. A single prediction of the neural network takes 35 µs on the GPU.
RESUMEN
Interferometric measurements of rotating objects face an axial motion component if the optical axis of the measurement system is not pointing towards the axis of rotation. In a typical interferometer, axial motion of half a wavelength reduces the interference contrast to zero. Our setup compensates for this axial component by an adapted variation of the reference path length during exposure utilizing a piezoelectric actuator. We present off-center measurements on a cylinder, rotating with different angular velocities. The repeatability of these measurements is dominated by motion blur, which demonstrates that the compensation of the axial motion works accurately.
RESUMEN
With the application of multiwavelength digital holography in rough environments, such as where machine tools are used, we cannot rely on the complete absence of vibrations. The evaluation of temporal phase shifting in multiple interferograms regions allows one to determine and take into account random subwavelength tilt changes during image acquisition of the sensor with respect to a work piece. In this regard, experimental data inside a controlled laboratory setup, as well as data acquired within a five-axis machine tool suffering from random vibrations, are evaluated and affirmed by a simulation model.
RESUMEN
We describe the inline integration of the digital holographic sensor HoloTop in a precision turning plant. A fully automated part-handling system that fulfills the requirements for cycle time and stability was built and integrated into the production process. The inspection system has been running in multishift operation since 2015. For the first time, to the best of our knowledge, the results of one-year, long-term height measurements of 10 million parts under rough production conditions are presented to verify the suitability for industrial use.
RESUMEN
Digital holographic measurements on planar moving objects are investigated. We discuss the dependence of the interference contrast on velocity and aperture width for both diffusely and specularly reflecting objects. Using spatial phase shifting, the experimental results for motion in parallel and perpendicular to the optical axis are in good agreement with the theoretical considerations. Measurements with object velocities of up to 100 mm/s are conducted using only less than 1 mW of continuous-wave laser light. These considerations are used to determine the optimal angle between the direction of motion and the illuminating beam, resulting in the lowest decrease in contrast with increasing velocity.
