Ventzas ed.), In this chapter, a spatio-temporal selection type coded structured light projection method is proposed for the acquisition of three-dimensional images at a high frame rate. The proposed method can select adaptive space encoding types accoding to the temporal changes in the code images, Our proposed method was verified off-line using a testbed that was composed of a high-speed camera and ahigh-speed projector. We evaluated its effectiveness by producing experimental results for various three-dimensional objects moving quickly, at a high frame rate such as 1000 fps, which is too fast for the human eye to observe their three-dimensional motion in detail., In this chapter, a spatio-temporal selection type coded structured light projection method is proposed for the acquisition of three-dimensional images at a high frame rate.
