Abstract

This paper proposes a measurement system capable of estimating the transmittance and haze values of a composite object. The system, comprising a polarized camera, linear polarizer, and backlight, was calibrated to obtain four phase polarization images. Forty-one samples, which covered a wide range of transmittance and haze values, were manufactured to assist in correlating the polarization images and the referenced ground truth from the BKY-Gardner instrument. After the data regression, two linear equations were selected to estimate the transmittance and haze values of transparent objects. The verification experiment for 52 samples demonstrated that the proposed method accurately estimated the transmittance of the samples with a coefficient of determination ($R^2$) as high as 0.96 and an average error of less than 4.1%. The haze estimation had an $R^2$ of 0.94 and an average error of 5.08%. Pseudo color maps were used to present the different transmittance and haze values of a single object. The proposed system can perform image-based translucency measurements and obtain individual values of a composite object.
