To provide precise configuration reference for the engineering bionics, high accuracy detection in large field of view on the natural biological body is a prerequisite. Targeting the streamline body of carcharhinus brachyurous, 3D (three dimensional) measurement was carried out with monocular and binocular vision inspecting system based on sinusoidal structure light. By means of moving the vision sensor driven by a stepper motor, fringe patterns with variable fringe spacing were projected to every parts of the shark body, then the point clouds of different parts of the whole shark body were obtained. Using the quaternion method to joint the edges of these point clouds together, surface reconstruction was conducted. Finally the digital model of the low resistance body of shark was achieved. It would be useful reference for the configuration design of underwater vehicles, especially microminiature biomimetic underwater vehicles.

The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-mounted mobile LiDAR system (ULS) is widely used for geomatics owing to its efficient data acquisition and convenient operation. However, due to limited carrying capacity of a UAV, sensors integrated in the ULS should be small and lightweight, which results in decrease in the density of the collected scanning points. This affects registration between image data and point cloud data. To address this issue, the authors propose a method for registering and fusing ULS sequence images and laser point clouds, wherein they convert the problem of registering point cloud data and image data into a problem of matching feature points between the two images. First, a point cloud is selected to produce an intensity image. Subsequently, the corresponding feature points of the intensity image and the optical image are matched, and exterior orientation parameters are solved using a collinear equation based on image position and orientation. Finally, the sequence images are fused with the laser point cloud, based on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) time index of the optical image, to generate a true color point cloud. The experimental results show the higher registration accuracy and fusion speed of the proposed method, thereby demonstrating its accuracy and effectiveness.
