Questions tagged [camera-calibration]

In Computer Vision, camera-calibration is the process of finding the true parameters of the camera that produced a given photograph or video. Usually, the camera parameters are represented in a 3 × 4 matrix called the camera matrix.

Usually we say a camera is calibrated when we know the Intrinsic Parameters.

How does Kinect calculates depth?

I'm getting a little bit confused here. How does Kinect calculates depth: What I understand is that The IR projector throws out a pattern which is reflected back and read by the IR camera. Now the IR camera knows the pattern for a particular depth.…

Understanding of openCV undistortion

I'm receiving depth images of a tof camera via MATLAB. the delivered drivers of the tof camera to compute x,y,z coordinates out of the depth image are using openCV function, which are implemented in MATLAB via mex-files. But later on I can't use…

Calibrate camera with opencv, how does it work and how do i have to move my chessboard

I'm using openCV the calibrateCamera function to calibrate my camera. I started from the tutorial implementation, but there seems something wrong. The camera is looking down on a table and i use a chessboard with an area that covers about 1/2 or 1/4…

Opencv: Computing fundamental matrix from R and T

I want to compute the epipolar lines of a stereo camera. I know both camera intrinsics matrix as well as R and T. I tried to compute the essential matrix as told in Learning Opencv book and wikipedia. where [t]x is the matrix representation of the…

Google Goggles Camera Autofocus

The Google Goggles app auto-focuses considerably better than the default Camera app on my Nexus 4 (and other phones/tablets I tried on). In fact, it does it so good I think they do it software. Does anyone know how the Goggles app does the autofocus…

Project 2d points in camera 1 image to camera 2 image after a stereo calibration

I am doing stereo calibration of two cameras (let's name them L and R) with opencv. I use 20 pairs of checkerboard images and compute the transformation of R with respect to L. What I want to do is use a new pair of images, compute the 2d…

Rectification of uncalibrated cameras, via fundamental matrix

I'm trying to do calibration of Kinect camera and external camera, with Emgu/OpenCV. I'm stuck and I would really appreciate any help. I've choose do this via fundamental matrix, i.e. epipolar geometry. But the result is not as I've expected.…

Image is warped after stereo rectification

I'm currently implementing the stereovision with OpenCV. Now I'm using the Stereo_Calib sample to remove the distortion en rectify the image. Removing the distortion works fine. But when I apply rectification, the image is very warped. This is the…
