A two-dimensional (2D) shearography with source displacement is proposed to measure object contours. Using a dual-shear shearographic setup with two movable laser sources, the full-field slopes along a pair of orthogonal shear directions were obtained. The contour was then obtained by performing 2D integration of the surface slopes. Theoretical derivations and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method. The experimental results show that contour of objects with various types of surfaces, such as spherical and hyperbolic paraboloid surfaces, can be effectively measured. The measurement of the contour aids in the precision measurement of strain and the precision location of defects.
