Application of Moire Profilometry in Three-Dimensional Profile Reconstruction of Key Parts in Railway.

Moire profilometry (MP) is one of the three-dimensional (3D) topography measurement methods of structured light, which has the advantages of single frame reconstruction, high speed, no contact and high precision, and is suitable for dynamic measurement scenes. In this article, the digital MP is applied to the wheel tread measurement, the virtual grating is generated by computer to project to the object surface, the moire fringe pattern of the object is obtained by filtering, and finally the continuous phase pattern is obtained by phase unwrapping. The 3D shape reconstruction of the wheel tread is realized, and a new method of wheel tread detection is provided.
