Current Research

Fringe projection (FP) measurement techniques offer fast, non-contact measurements of the surface form of manufactured parts at relatively low cost. Recent advances in FP have reduced the measurement errors from effects such as multiple surface reflections and projector defocus. However, there is no standardised calibration framework for FP systems and an uncertainty evaluation of surface measurements is rarely carried out in practice. A calibration framework for estimating spatial frequency-dependent measurement uncertainty built on solid theoretical foundations is required. To move towards a traceable surface measurement using FP techniques, we are developing a measurement model to accurately predict the captured image and include all major uncertainty contributors

Past Research

Created a tactile measuring arm using only acclerometers in 2017 as part of his Masters dissertation.
