Detection of Calibration Patterns for Camera Calibration with Irregular Lighting and Complicated Backgrounds

چکیده
This paper proposes a method to detect calibration patterns for accurate camera calibration under complicated backgrounds and uneven lighting conditions of industrial fields. Required to measure object dimensions, the preprocessing of camera calibration must be able to extract calibration points from a calibration pattern. However, industrial fields for visual inspection rarely provide the proper lighting conditions for camera calibration of a measurement system. In this paper, a probabilistic criterion is proposed to detect a local set of calibration points, which would guide the extraction of other calibration points in a cluttered background under irregular lighting conditions. If only a local part of the calibration pattern can be seen, input data can be extracted for camera calibration. In an experiment using real images, we verified that the method can be applied to camera calibration for poor quality images obtained under uneven illumination and cluttered background.

Which pattern? Biasing aspects of planar calibration patterns and detection methods
This paper provides a comparative study on the use of planar patterns in the generation of control points for camera calibration. This is an important but often neglected aspect in camera calibration. Two popular checkerboard and circular dot patterns are each examined with two detection strategies for invariance to the potential bias from projective transformations and nonlinear distortions. I...
متن کاملDistributed Smart Camera Calibration Using Blinking LED
Smart camera networks are very powerful for various computer vision applications. As a preliminary step in the application, every camera in the scene needs to be calibrated. For most of the calibration algorithms, image point correspondences are needed. Therefore, easy to detect objects can be used like LEDs. Unfortunately, existing LED based calibration methods are highly sensitive to lighting...
متن کاملCamera Calibration for Daylight Specular-Point Locus
In this paper we present a new camera calibration method aimed at finding a straight-line locus, in a special colour feature space, that is traversed by daylights and as well also approximately followed by specular points. The aim of the calibration is to enable recovering the colour of the illuminant in a scene, using the calibrated camera. First we prove theoretically that any candidate specu...
متن کاملAutomatic Color Calibration for Large Camera Arrays
We present a color calibration pipeline for large camera arrays. We assume static lighting conditions for each camera, such as studio lighting or a stationary array outdoors. We also assume we can place a planar calibration target so it is visible from every camera. Our goal is uniform camera color responses, not absolute color accuracy, so we match the cameras to each other instead of to a col...
متن کامل A novel approach to automatic position calibration for pixelated crystals in gamma imaging
Introduction: The position estimation in gamma detection system will have constant misplacements which can be corrected in the calibration procedure. In the pixelated crystal uniformly irradiation of detector will produce irregular shape due to position estimation errors. This image is called flood field image and is used to calibrate the position estimation. In this work we pr...
