7.1 INTRODUCTION
Previous chapters have introduced various spatial techniques for the
extraction of phase information from a single frame. Among them, the
Fourier transform technique has been most widely studied and applied in
practical situations for fringe analysis, which involves transforming the
intensity data into the Fourier domain. Fringe analysis using this tech-
nique involves the ...
