Abstract
We demonstrate an optical frequency comb profilometer with a single-pixel camera to measure the position and profile of an object’s surface that exceeds far beyond light wavelength without phase ambiguity. The present configuration of the single-pixel camera can perform the profilometry with an axial resolution of 3.4 μm at 1 GHz operation corresponding to a wavelength of 30 cm. Therefore, the axial dynamic range was increased to . It was found from the experiments and computer simulations that the improvement was derived from higher modulation contrast of digital micromirror devices. The frame rate was also increased to 20 Hz.
