Digital image correlation for surface deformation measurement: historical developments, recent advances and future goals
Abstract
Abstract This article is a personal review of the historical developments of digital image correlation (DIC) techniques, together with recent important advances and future goals. The historical developments of DIC techniques over the past 35 years are divided into a foundation-laying phase (1982–1999) and a boom phase (2000 to the present), and are traced by describing some of the milestones that have enabled new and/or better DIC measurements to be made. Important advances made to DIC since 2010 are reviewed, with an emphasis on new insights into the 2D-DIC system, new improvements to the correlation algorithm, and new developments in stereo-DIC systems. A summary of the current state-of-the-art DIC techniques is provided. Some further improvements that are needed and the future goals in the field are also envisioned.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
