Fringe projection profilometry (FPP) has been widely applied in industrial 3D measurement due to its high precision and non-contact advantages. However, FPP often encounters measurement problems with high-dynamic-range objects, consequently impacting phase computation. In this paper, an adaptive exposure time selection method is proposed to calculate the optimal number of exposures and exposure time by using an improved clustering method to divide the region with different reflection degrees. Meanwhile, the phase order sharing strategy is adopted in the phase unwrapping stage, and the same set of complementary Gray code patterns is used to calculate the phase orders under different exposure times. The experimental results demonstrate that the measurement error of the method described in this paper was reduced by 25.4% under almost the same exposure times.
