Enhanced fringe-to-phase framework using deep learning

Abstract

In Fringe Projection Profilometry (FPP), achieving robust and accurate 3D reconstruction with a limited number of fringe patterns remains a challenge in structured light 3D imaging. Conventional methods require a set of fringe images, but using only one or two patterns complicates phase recovery and unwrapping. In this study, we introduce SFNet, a symmetric fusion network that transforms two fringe images into an absolute phase. To enhance output reliability, Our framework predicts refined phases by incorporating information from fringe images of a different frequency than those used as input. This allows us to achieve high accuracy with just two images. Comparative experiments and ablation studies validate the effectiveness of our proposed method. The dataset and code are publicly accessible on our project page https://wonhoe-kim.github.io/SFNet.
