Abstract (500 words) and Summary (200 words): 28 June 2010

Manuscript for On-site Proceedings: 15 November 2010

Three-dimensional (3D) imaging systems are now widely available, but
standards, best practices and comparative data are limited. The need for
standards is mainly driven by users and product developers who are
concerned with 1) the applicability of a given system to the task at
hand (fit-for-purpose), 2) the ability to fairly compare across
instruments, 3) instrument warranty issues, 4) costs savings through 3D
imaging. This conference focuses on two topics. The first topic is the
metric performance of 3D imaging sensors and algorithms where the
performance of a system is usually evaluated using quality parameters
such as resolution, uncertainty, accuracy and complexity. Metrology
provides a framework to assess the overall performance of a system in
terms of uncertainty characterization and reporting. The second topic
focuses on the development of standards for 3D imaging systems.

This conference on 3D imaging metrology provides a unique forum for
researchers, developers, users and policy makers to present the latest
advances in 3D imaging and modeling of existing object and sites along
with the most recent work in standard definitions. These 3D measurement
systems, based on high speed, non-contact optical sensors, provide dense
3D surface data. Systems include 3D capture methods that use coded-light
projection systems, triangulation and time-of-flight systems for
distances from a few centimeters to several kilometers. This conference
is in response to the rapidly growing interest in 3D imaging technology
and the increase in demand of such technology and standards in
applications and disciplines such as 3D modeling (e.g., structures,
human body) rapid product development, manufacturing, construction,
forensics, medicine, cultural heritage objects/sites documentation, and
exploration of remote and hazardous sites, to name a few.


We invite submission of original research contributions, state-of-art
summaries, as well as demonstrations of successful and less successful
applications in, but not limited to, the following technical areas:

Performance evaluation of 3D sensing methods, sensor calibration, data
processing and surface modeling

    * 3D surface sensing (measurement physics), systems, and methods (e.g., fringe projection, time-of-flight, triangulation, dense stereo methods)
    * portable metrology equipment
    * advances in calibration techniques
    * performance evaluation: artifacts, methodologies, facilities and fundamentals
    * freeform metrology
    * object and large volume metrology
    * measurement of small geometries
    * integration and fusion of multiple data sources (CMM, laser trackers, flash lidar, 3D imaging)
    * multiview registration and integration
    * data processing (e.g. data cleaning)
    * modeling of deformable surfaces
    * human body scanning and modeling
    * validation of computer vision algorithms
    * time-resolved 3D-image analysis techniques.

Emerging and new standards for 3D imaging systems

    * dimensional standards and their impact (e.g., VDI/VDE 2634, ASTM E57, ISO TC 172, ISO/DIS 10360-8)
    * measurement uncertainties & traceability issues
    * standards & calibrations at National Metrology Institutes
    * best practice (e.g. test cases, in-field checks)
    * performance evaluation and calibration facilities
    * free-form verification artifacts: construction, surface finish and shape
    * education, training and operator capability
    * policy making.
