Abstract

A camera calibration algorithm based on self-made target is proposed in this paper, which can solve the difficulty of making high precision 3D target. The self-made target consists of two intersecting chess board. With the classic scale method, the 3D coordinates of selected points in the target were derived from the distance matrix. The element in distance matrix is the distance between every two points, which can be obtained by measurement. The spatial location precision of points in the target was ensured by measurement instead of manufacturing, which reduced the production cost and the requirements for the production accuracy greatly. Camera calibration was completed using 3D target based method. It can be further extended to the applications where the target cannot be produced. The experimental results show the validity of this method.
