- Description
- Opportunity: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS), LLC under contract no. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is offering the opportunity to enter into a collaboration to commercialize its method of generating a digital twin of structured light metrology. Background: Structured light metrology systems provide a precise and efficient digital reconstruction of real-world objects through projected light patterns and a camera system.� These digital images form the processing data for fabrication systems.� Structured light scanners require a time-sensitive manual setting of the input parameters that result from the measurements of the real-world objects.� What is needed is a method to automate a robust search for optimal exposure time with minimal human intervention and judgment. Description: LLNL�s novel approach utilizes the following techniques to improve reconstruction accuracy: Better coding scheme-based techniques Hardware-assisted techniques Adaptive fringe projection techniques Multi-exposure based techniques The method requires specific calibration procedures and control of the hardware, which is achieved through a digital twin of the metrology system and a defined �coverage quality metric� to evaluate the measurement data sets. Advantages/Benefits:� Manufacturing costs can be reduced due to automated 3D scanning. For operators of structured light scanners, the novel method can automate the selection of exposure time for repeated scanning. For digital twin developers of structured light scanners, the technology can add optimal exposure times to the digital twin. For manufacturers of structured light scanners, LLNL�s digital twin approach extends the possibilities of automation processing for the optical metrology technique. Potential Applications:� 3D scanning/imaging Digital twin development Development Status:� LLNL has filed for patent protection on this technology. Current stage of technology development:� TRL 6 (engineering system validation in relevant environment).� The functionality of the invention has been tested successfully. LLNL is seeking industry partners with a demonstrated ability to bring such inventions to the market. Moving critical technology beyond the Laboratory to the commercial world helps our licensees gain a competitive edge in the marketplace. All licensing activities are conducted under policies relating to the strict nondisclosure of company proprietary information.� Please visit the IPO website at https://ipo.llnl.gov/resources for more information on working with LLNL and the industrial partnering and technology transfer process. Note:� THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT.� Companies interested in commercializing LLNL's digital twin of structured light metrology should provide a written statement of interest, which includes the following: 1.�������� Company Name and address. 2.�������� The name, address, and telephone number of a point of contact. 3.� � � � �A description of corporate expertise and/or facilities relevant to commercializing this technology. Written responses should be directed to: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Innovation and Partnerships Office P.O. Box 808, L-779 Livermore, CA� 94551-0808 Attention:�� IL-13779 Please provide your written statement within thirty (30) days from the date this announcement is published to ensure consideration of your interest in LLNL's digital twin of structured light metrology.
