چکیده
In this paper an improved method for calibrating wide-angle, fisheye and omnidirectional imaging systems is presented. We extend the calibration procedure proposed by Scaramuzza et al. by replacing the residual function and joint refinement of all parameters. In doing so, we achieve a more stable, robust and accurate calibration (up to factor 7) and can reduce the number of necessary calibration steps from five to three. After introducing the camera model and highlighting the differences from the current calibration procedure, we perform a comprehensive performance evaluation using several data sets and show the impact of the proposed calibration procedure on the calibration results.

متن کاملTechnical Report Bundle Adjustment and System Calibration with Points at Infinity for Omnidirectional Cameras
We present a calibration method for multi-view cameras which provides a rigorous maximum-likelihood estimation of the mutual orientation of the cameras within a rigid multi-camera system. No calibration targets are needed just a movement of the multi-camera system taking synchronized images of a high textured and static scene. Multi-camera systems with non-overlapping views have to be rotated w...
متن کاملEquisolid Fisheye Stereovision Calibration and Point Cloud Computation
This paper deals with dense 3D point cloud computation of urban environments around a vehicle. The idea is to use two fisheye views to get 3D coordinates of the surrounding scene’s points. The first contribution of this paper is the adaptation of an omnidirectional stereovision self-calibration algorithm to an equisolid fisheye projection model. The second contribution is the description of a n...
متن کاملLaFiDa - A Laserscanner Multi-Fisheye Camera Dataset
In this article, the Laserscanner Multi-Fisheye Camera Dataset (LaFiDa) for applying benchmarks is presented. A head-mounted multi-fisheye camera system combined with a mobile laserscanner was utilized to capture the benchmark datasets. Besides this, accurate six degrees of freedom (6 DoF) ground truth poses were obtained from a motion capture system with a sampling rate of 360 Hz. Multiple seq...
متن کاملGeometric Modelling and Calibration of Fisheye Lens Camera Systems
The paper describes a geometric projection model for fisheye lenses and presents results of the calibration of fisheye lens camera systems based on it. For fisheye images the real projection model does not comply with the central perspective. In addition, the lenses are subject to considerable distortions. The fisheye lens projection follows an approximately linear relation between the incidenc...
