A new flexible approach for Single Laser stripe profiler Calibration

This paper presents a novel approach for single laser stripe profiler calibration. It is well suited for use without specialized knowledge of 3D geometry or computer vision. The technique only requires the camera to observe a planar pattern intersecting with the laser plane shown at a few (at least three) different orientations. The planar pattern can be freely moved. The motion need not be known. The proposed procedure consists of a large input data for laser plane calibration optimization. Experiments demonstrate the validity and applicability of this approach.
