A crossed fringe pattern plane was used as the model plane for camera calibration. The local world coordinates of the model planes can be decided by the previously known phase distributions on the planes. So the relationships between the 2D image coordinates and the 2D world coordinates will be set up, and the calibration procedure will be done by plane-based camera calibration technique after measuring the phase distributions of the reference plane at several different orientations. This avoids the complex procedure of extracting the control points from images, produces mass volume calibration data, and leads to the high-accuracy calibration results even with the lest orientations in need. Both computer simulation and real data confirm the proposed technique is reliable, high accurate and high speed.
