Field Geometric Calibration Method for Line Structured Light Sensor Using Single Circular Target

الملخص EN

To achieve fast calibration of line structured light sensor, a geometric calibration approach based on single circular calibration target is proposed.

The proposed method uses the circular points to establish linear equations, and according to the angle constraint, the camera intrinsic parameters can be calculated through optimization.

Then, the light plane calibration is accomplished in two steps.

Firstly, when the vanishing lines of target plane at various postures are obtained, the intersections between vanishing lines and laser stripe can be computed, and the normal vector of light plane can be calibrated via line fitting method using intersection points.

After that, the distance from the origin of camera coordinate system to the light plane can be derived based on the model of perspective-three-point.

The actual experimental result shows that this calibration method has high accuracy, its average measuring accuracy is 0.0451 mm, and relative error is 0.2314%.

In addition, the entire calibration process has no complex operations.

It is simple, convenient, and suitable for calibration on sites.
