Computer-Controlled Stereoscopic Profiling, Neil Scott Grayson

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

This paper presents a computer controlled stereoscopic vision system that will profile the contour and shape of the bottom of the human foot in its natural weight bearing position. The design will have no moving parts and will be restricted to an error of no more than {dollar}\pm{dollar}1 mm; Stereoscopic vision was chosen as the solution to profiling mainly because its use for this purpose is well documented. It is used in many fields that require range resolution. Mechanical engineers have used it in the development of robot vision for years and their applications range from control systems for robot …
