Abstract: We introduce a novel calibration and reconstruction procedure for structured light scanning that foregoes explicit point triangulation in favor of a data-driven lookup procedure. The key idea is to sweep a calibration checkerboard over the entire scanning volume with a linear stage and acquire a dense stack of images to build a per-pixel lookup table from colors to depths. Imperfections in the setup, lens distortion, and sensor defects are baked into the calibration data, leading to a more reliable and accurate reconstruction. Existing structured light scanners can be reused without modifications while enjoying the superior precision and resilience that our calibration and reconstruction algorithms offer. Our algorithm shines when paired with a custom-designed analog projector, which enables 1-megapixel high-speed 3D scanning at up to 500 fps. We describe our algorithm and hardware prototype for high-speed 3D scanning and compare them with commercial and open-source structured light scanning methods.
