Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms

Fugro Canada Corp.

$149,990.00

Laser Optimization of the Pave3DX system for Camera Miniaturization

FY 2017-18 · 2017-07-17

Summary
Under a previous IRAP project, Fugro has created a camera system to measure the pavement surface with a stereoscopic camera system. During the development of this camera system, we developed opted for an LED illumination that we believed would be best for the project. During the design and creation of the prototype LED, several factors that limit the commercialization of the existing Pave3DX camera and LED option. The ability to implement a laser alternative is likely to produce a smaller unit with a lower power consumption and less heat production.

Description (French)
Dans le cadre d’un projet PARI précédent, Fugro a créé un système de caméra pour mesurer la surface de la chaussée avec un système de caméra stéréoscopique. Lors du développement de ce système de caméra, nous avons opté pour un éclairage DEL, qui, selon nous, serait le mieux adapté au projet. Lors de la conception et de la création du prototype DEL, plusieurs facteurs limitent la commercialisation de la caméra Pave3DX existante et l’option DEL. La possibilité d'implémenter une alternative au laser est susceptible de produire une unité plus petite avec une consommation d'énergie inférieure et une production de chaleur moindre.
