Abstract:
A method for measuring 3D coordinates of an object by fusing a reference model of the object with normal vectors determined from three camera images of the object, each of the three camera images viewed through a linear polarizer oriented at a different angle.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for measuring three-dimensional (3D) coordinates of a first object, comprising:\n providing a reference model of the first object; providing at least one processor; providing a camera system having a first linear polarizer oriented at a first angle, a second linear polarizer oriented at a second angle, and a third linear polarizer oriented at a third angle; forming with the camera system a first image of the first object seen through the first linear polarizer and sending a first electrical signal to the at least one processor in response; forming with the camera system a second image of the first object seen through the second linear polarizer and sending a second electrical signal to the at least one processor in response; forming with the camera system a third image of the first object seen through the third linear polarizer and sending a third electrical signal to the at least one processor in response; determining by the at least one processor the 3D coordinates of the first object based at least in part on the reference model, the first electrical signal, the second electrical signal, the third electrical signal, the first angle, the second angle, and the third angle; and storing the 3D coordinates.
