Evaluation of Camera Calibration Toolboxes
Proposal for a Research Internship / Project Theses
Topic:
Evaluation of Camera Calibration Toolboxes
Description:
Modern computer vision applications, e.g., 3D reconstruction, measurement, robotics, or multiview processing, stand and fall with the accuracy of the foregoing camera calibration. The result of the calibration directly influences the relation between image pixels and the geometry of the recorded scene, thus it must be as accurate as possible.
Typically, the calibration process estimates the camera-specific parameters of a given model,
such as pin-hole, or fisheye. Parameters of interest are, for example, focal length, pixel aspect
ratio, optical center, lens distortion, etc. Only a well-estimated model describes reasonable relation between the scene and the resulting image.
