Adaptive resolution in speckle displacement measurement using optimized grid-based phase correlation and statistical refinement by Hamed Sabahno, Satyam Paul, Davood Khodadad

“…The approach resulted in a relative error reduction of up to 14 % compared to the best of the results obtained using a manually fixed grid size.The proposed sensing methodology is validated through a series of numerical simulations and experimental studies, including controlled deformations with a micrometer translation stage and random speckle displacements on water-sprayed surfaces. Results demonstrate that our method can accurately detect both known and unknown deformations with high accuracy and precision, outperforming traditional techniques in terms of adaptability and robustness, particularly for surface deformation analysis.…”
