A Calibration Technique for CCD Cameras using Pose Estimation
نویسنده
چکیده
In this report we present a new calibration technique for off-the-shelf CCD cameras and acquisition systems. The estimated camera model includes 6 extrinsic and up to 8 intrinsic model parameters including radial and tangential distortion. Also an inverse distortion function for correction of distortion effects can be estimated. Planar and non-planar objects can be used as previously measured calibration targets. The method is suitable for single image and multiple image input datasets. Tools for MathematicaTM, MATLABTMand KhorosTMwere developed and tested by the author at PRIP. In addition this report includes also a number of practical test results. PRIP-TR-{085} CONTENTS

Comparative Geometric Tests of Industrial and Scientific Ccd Cameras Using Plumb Line and Test Range Calibrations
Small format, medium resolution CCD cameras are at present widely used for industrial metrology applications. Large format, high resolution CCD cameras are principally used for scientific applications, but are slowly infiltrating photogrammetry and dramatically improving the object space accuracy achievable by close range measurement. The calibration of all types of CCD cameras is necessary in ...
متن کاملCalibration of Panoramic Catadioptric Sensors Made Easier
We present a new method to calibrate panoramic catadioptric sensors. While many methods exist for planar cameras, it is not the case for panoramic catadioptric sensors. The aim of the proposed calibration is not to estimate the mirror surface parameters which can be known very accurately, but to estimate the intrinsic parameters of the CCD camera and the pose parameters of the CCD camera with r...
متن کاملStructure from Motion Using Rigidly Coupled Cameras without Overlapping Views
Structure from Motion can be improved by using multicamera systems without overlapping views to provide a large combined field of view. The extrinsic calibration of such camera systems can be computed from local reconstructions using hand-eye calibration techniques. Nevertheless these approaches demand that motion constraints resulting from the rigid coupling of the cameras are satisfied which ...
متن کاملCalibration of a Pmd-camera Using a Planar Calibration Pattern Together with a Multi-camera Setup
We discuss the joint calibration of novel 3D range cameras based on the time-of-flight principle with the Photonic Mixing Device (PMD) and standard 2D CCD cameras. Due to the small field-of-view (fov) and low pixel resolution, PMD-cameras are difficult to calibrate with traditional calibration methods. In addition, the 3D range data contains systematic errors that need to be compensated. Theref...
متن کاملA New Approach to Self-Localization for Mobile Robots Using Sensor Data Fusion
This paper proposes a new approach for calibration of dead reckoning process. Using the well-known UMBmark (University of Michigan Benchmark) is not sufficient for a desirable calibration of dead reckoning. Besides, existing calibration methods usually require explicit measurement of actual motion of the robot. Some recent methods use the smart encoder trailer or long range finder sensors such ...
