Monitoring the three-dimensional formation of ice layers on airfoils during icing wind tunnel experiments is extremely challenging. For the first time, this paper demonstrates the use of a single plenoptic camera to perform transient, nonintrusive in situ measurements of ice crystal accretion. Experiments have been conducted in the Altitude Icing Wind Tunnel at the National Research Council of Canada under different icing conditions to assess the potential of the new technique. Using the camera in a close-up configuration, the results show the evolution of the three-dimensional shape of the accreted ice in high spatial and temporal resolution and in absolute metric units. The computed surface meshes allow for a detailed analysis in terms of ice shape, surface area, and ice volume. Posttest shapes are compared to measurements taken using a commercial laser scanner. Although not rated for ice surfaces, this device is used as a reference to compare the detailed surface structure after registering the data sets. The results of the two methods are in good agreement and show a mean relative deviation of the plenoptic camera of about 0.15 mm.
