[0033] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the embodiment relates to a projection cloud pattern system for a continuous mirror, comprising a display 1 as a surface light source, a mirror to be measured 2, a receiving system comprising an imaging lens 3, a grating 4, a shell 5, a camera 6, and a control module 7 for sending and receiving signals, wherein: the control module 7 sends the required stripe image information to the display 1, sends the signal of moving the grating to the displacement platform in the grating 4 and the displacement platform, and receives the cloud pattern image information recorded by the camera 6, and finally calculates the three-dimensional topography of the mirror to be measured 2 by image processing.

[0034] In the embodiment, the resolution of the display is 2388*1668, which is used for projecting the stripe pattern.

[0035] In the embodiment, the imaging lens 3 adopts but is not limited to a zoom long-focus lens, which is used for receiving the stripe pattern reflected by the mirror and converging on the grating. The imaging lens 3 is fixed on the shell 5 through a special bayonet.

[0036] The displacement platform and the grating 4 comprise a piezoelectric ceramic displacement platform and a machine-etched grating. The piezoelectric ceramic displacement platform is a two-dimensional displacement platform, which can realize the movement of the grating with a positioning accuracy of 3 nm in two directions in the plane; the machine-etched grating selects a suitable grating pitch and area according to the actual measurement requirement, and the function is to form a cloud pattern by geometrically interfering with the mirror stripe pattern converged on the grating.

[0037] In the embodiment, the resolution of the camera 6 is 5472*3648, which is used for collecting the cloud pattern image.

[0038] The control module 7 is connected with the display 1, the camera 6 and the displacement platform controller respectively, realizes the display of the stripe image, the collection of the cloud pattern image and the control of the displacement platform, and realizes the processing of the collected cloud pattern image to calculate the three-dimensional topography data of the mirror to be measured 2.

[0039] As shown in Figure 4The embodiment is a projection grating-based mirror three-dimensional profile measurement method based on the above system, and specifically includes the following steps:

[0040] Step 1) Adjust the receiving system settings: adjust the focusing ring of the imaging lens, so that the focusing ring number is close to the distance between the receiving system and the measured mirror; adjust the focal length of the imaging lens, so that the target measured area occupies a suitable size of the camera image; adjust the camera lens focal length, so that the camera can clearly image the pattern of the measured mirror position.

[0041] Step 2) Calibrate the equivalent camera internal parameters and the reference mirror, and display the first position corresponding to the external parameters: use the display to display the checkerboard calibration board, change the position and attitude of the calibration board multiple times, and shoot the corresponding checkerboard pattern for calibrating the equivalent camera internal parameters; select a position near the measured mirror as the reference mirror position, place the calibration board at this position to shoot the checkerboard pattern, which is used to calibrate the equivalent camera external parameters corresponding to the reference mirror; select a suitable display measurement position, so that the stripe pattern of the display can be reflected by the measured mirror and then be shot by the receiving system; place the standard plane mirror at the determined reference mirror position, and place the display at the confirmed measurement position, and use the receiving system to shoot the checkerboard pattern of the virtual image of the display inside the reference mirror, which is used to calibrate the external parameters corresponding to the virtual image position of the display.

[0042] The equivalent camera, i.e. the cloud grating receiving system, can be regarded as a camera with inverted image during the calibration process.

[0043] Step 3) Shoot the cloud grating image under the first position of the display: according to the fineness of the stripes, select the grating with a frequency close to the reference grating in the image, adjust the position of the moving platform so that the grating is located at the focal plane position of the camera, and form a clear cloud grating pattern with the stripes; shoot four cloud grating patterns formed by each of the four stripe patterns with a phase difference of π / 4 and the four reference grating patterns with a phase difference of π / 4 under the measured mirror.

[0044] Step 4) Shoot the cloud grating image under the second position of the display: move the display position, so that the display stripe pattern received by the receiving system can still cover the measured mirror measurement area and form a clear cloud grating with the reference grating; shoot four cloud grating patterns formed by each of the four stripe patterns with a phase difference of π / 4 and the four reference grating patterns with a phase difference of π / 4 under the second position of the display.

[0045] The second position refers to any display position under the condition that the same display stripe in the image can still cover the measured mirror and form a clear cloud grating with the grating.

[0046] Step 5) calibrate the display second position corresponding to the external parameter, and receive the camera parameter in the system: replace the measured mirror with the reference mirror, the display displays the same checkerboard pattern as before, the receiving system takes the reference mirror under the calibration board checkerboard pattern, which is used to calibrate the equivalent camera external parameter corresponding to the display second position; replace the reference grid with the calibration board, take the checkerboard pattern at the reference grid position, which is used to calibrate the camera external parameter corresponding to the reference grid; change the pose of the calibration board, take multiple checkerboard patterns, which are used to calibrate the camera internal parameter.

[0047] The calibration is obtained by Zhang Zhengyou calibration method.

[0048] Step 6) using the mirror projection cloud pattern model and the mirror cloud pattern topography solving method, the cloud pattern phase is used to solve the three-dimensional topography of the mirror.

[0049] Through specific actual experiments, the projection cloud pattern method based on the above-mentioned system for continuous mirror, through the display 1 as a surface light source, the sinusoidal fringe is projected to the measured mirror surface, after the modulation reflection of the mirror, it enters the receiving system and interacts with the grating to form the cloud pattern, and is recorded by the camera 6. In order to facilitate the measurement of measurement error, the measured mirror adopts a concave mirror with a curvature radius of 51.20mm, the average absolute error (MAE) of the profile line calculated by the mirror projection cloud pattern method of the present application is 0.0019mm, and the MAE of the profile line calculated by the existing monocular single screen phase deflection method is 0.0073mm, and the specific experimental data is as shown in Figure 6 and Table 1.
