Dynamic digital fringe projection (DDFP) techniques for measuring warpage. The DDFP technique generates a dynamic fringe pattern, in which a proper fringe intensity distribution is dynamically determined based on the surface reflectance of an unpainted sample in order to obtain better fringe image contrasts. The DDFP technique includes the automatic segmentation method to segment the chip package and PWB regions in an unpainted PWB assembly PWBA image. It also includes calibration methods to compensate the mismatches in coordinates and intensities between the projected and captured images.
