METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATIC INTRINSIC CAMERA CALIBRATION USING IMAGES OF A PLANAR CALIBRATION PATTERN

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a high precision method, model, and apparatus for calibrating the intrinsic camera parameter values of one or more intrinsic parameters of a camera. The intrinsic parameters include focal lengths, skew, optical center, and radial distortion coefficients. The practical implementation of the solution consists of a camera capturing several images of a planar calibration pattern from different viewpoints, and a computer implemented processing pipeline. The solution does not require additional human input and is robust to misdetection of the calibration pattern in some of the images.
