The measurement of the density of woven fabrics based on the vision method has been widely developed. This study used a photometric stereo method to measure the warp and weft density of woven fabrics based on the 3D surface structure. Six 2D images of the fabric were recorded, each with a different lighting direction. The six images were then reconstructed using the unbiased photometric stereo algorithm to produce the three-dimensional surface structure. The reconstructed image was used to detect and correct the skew angle with the Hough transform. For each image, a depth profile was made toward the x-axis to get the weft curve and towards the y-axis to get the warped curve. The two depth curves were filtered using a locally weighted smoothing (LOESS) filter. This study successfully measured the density of woven fabric with an average error for warp and weft of 0.64% and 0.45%, respectively.
