Item Automatic processing in Moiré deflectometry by local fringe direction calculation(Applied Optics, 1998) Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Quiroga Mellado, Juan Antonio; Bernabéu Martínez, EusebioAn algorithm for accurately extracting the local fringe direction is presented. The algorithm estimates, in the neighborhood of n × n points, the direction of the gradient that points normal to the local fringe direction. The performance of four different derivative kernels is also compared. Since this method is sensitive to noise and variations in background and amplitude, a preprocessing step is used to limit these error sources. The method has been applied to the moiré deflectogram of a spherical and a progressive addition ophthalmic lens, resulting in a map of the refractive power of these lenses. The results are compared with the data obtained with a commercial focimeter. This technique is useful for analyzing the fringe patterns where the fringe direction is variable and must be obtained locally.Item Enhancement of surface inspection by Moiré interferometry using flexible reference gratings(Optics Express, 2001) Quiroga Mellado, Juan Antonio; Martínez Antón, Juan Carlos; Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio; Álvaro Labajo, M.; Cortés Testillano, V.We have extended the use of shadow Moiré technique to be implemented in simple curved surfaces by using a flexible grating. Dynamic visual inspection of surface micro-damages is significantly favored by the use of well adapted pliable gratings compared to the use of flat reference gratings. The experimental set-up consists of a plastic foil with a printed Ronchi grating stretched between three points which adapts to any cylindrical or conical convex surface independently of the relative orientation grating/surface. Static quantification of defects profiles is also possible with an attached CCD camera. Visual detection of defects in the range of ~30 μm in depth is obtainable.Item Detection of microbumps in aeronautic surfaces by means of an elastical Moire system(Optical Measurement Systems for Industrial Inspection II: Application in Industrial Design, 2001) Quiroga Mellado, Juan Antonio; Martínez Antón, Juan Carlos; Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio; Álvaro Labajo, M.; Cortés Testillano, V.We provide a simple solution for the particular problem of the in-service inspection of aeronautic surfaces in order to detect bumps that otherwise it is made visually and usually less reliably. Bumps and other surface defects can be a symptom of a more serious internal damage. We have extended the use of the well know shadow Moire technique to be implemented in convex curved surfaces. The use of flexible Ronchi grating allows its adaptation to a convex general surface. The effect is the contrast enhancement of only the small defects sweeping-off other misleading height profile fringes. The result obtained are quite satisfactory compared to the use of flat reference gratings. The experimental set- up consists of a plastic foil with a printed Ronchi grating stretched between three points which adapts to nay cylindrical or conical convex surface independently of the relative grating-surface orientation. Static quantification of defects profiles is also possible by means of with an attached CCD camera. Visual detectability of local surface structures lye in the range of approximately 30 micrometers in depth.Item Improved Phase-Shifting Method for Automatic Processing of Moiré Deflectograms(Applied Optics, 1998) Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Quiroga Mellado, Juan Antonio; Bernabéu Martínez, EusebioAn improved moiré deflectometry phase-shifting technique is presented. A squared grating is used to multiplex the information of the deflections in two orthogonal directions in one image. This procedure avoids the need to rotate the gratings to obtain complete deflection information. However, the use of these gratings makes impossible the application of standard phase-shifting algorithms. Specifically, the problems associated with the nonsinusoidal profile of the moiré fringes and the low-modulation areas produced by the square gratings are solved. A modified moiré deflectometry phase-shifting method is designed to deal with these problems. In addition, a method to obtain the zero order of the prismatic effect is developed. The technique configures a complete and automatic method of mapping ray deflections. From them the refractive power maps can be derived. Experimental results obtained with a progressive-addition lens are shown.Item In-line detection and evaluation of surface defects on thin metallic wires(Optical Measurement Systems for Industrial Inspection II: Applications in Production Engineering, 2001) Martínez Antón, Juan Carlos; Siegmann, Philip; Sánchez Brea, Luis Miguel; Gómez Pedrero, José Antonio; Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio; Hoefling, Roland; Jueptner, Werner P. O.; Kujawinska, MalgorzataWe have developed a prototype for in-line detection of surface defects in metallic wires, specially for scratches. A simple geometrical relationship between surface topography and conical reflection, permits to correlate the defects with intensity patterns in a simple way. The presented apparatus consists basically in a grating-divided laser beam incident on angular equidistant points. A CCD and an associated optics capture the information of the whole wire perimeter at once. Analytic rudiments are provided in agreement with the experimental results.Item Laser beam deflectometry based on a subpixel resolution algorithm(Optical Engineering, 2001) Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Alonso Fernández, José; Bernabéu Martínez, EusebioA deflectometric method for the characterization of optical systems is presented. It is based on the use of a CCD camera and a subpixel resolution algorithm for the measurement of the deflection of a laser beam that propagates through the system. To obtain accurate results, three different algorithms for measuring the position of the deflected beam are tested and compared. Based on this comparison, an algorithm based on the calculation of the phase of the fast Fourier transform (FFT) is selected, and an accuracy of 0.024 pixels is obtained on the determination of the beam position in our setup. Using an XY scanning stage, the proposed method is completely automated and applied for the characterization of ophthalmic lenses. In this application, the gradients of the wavefront refracted by the lens are measured directly, and from them, the thickness and the local power of the lens are computed.
