This dataset contains:

Folder 'high_amp' and 'low_amp' contain the experimental data from deflectometry measurements for high and low amplitude cases respectively.
See paper and log file in the folders for detailed information on experimental parameters.
Subfolders 'phase_X_X' contain raw images.
Image files are alternating reference (unloaded) and deformed (loaded) cases.

Subfolders a, k, w, q, UPh, slopes and plots are required for saving data during processing (see MATLAB code for detail).
Subfolder slopes contains processed mean slope maps and example instantaneous slope maps.

log.txt is required for processing and must not be altered.

Folder vibrometer contains vibrometer data.

Folder codes contains the MATLAB codes required for processing deflectometry and LDV data.
