Abstract :
Camera calibration is very improtant in 3D computer vision systems. In this paper, the camera model in OpenCV (open source computer vision library) is discussed, the non-linear distortion of the tangential and radial distortion aberration are considered. Based on these, we introduce the corner extraction of the Camera Calibration Toolbox for Matlab, and an arithmetic of camera calibration based on OpenCV is given. The proposed algorithm can achieve accurate results. It has features such as computational efficiency and good cross-platform portability. It is able to meet the needs of 3D computer vision systems. Experimental results show the feasibility of the proposed method.
