  • When the user zooms in on an image, the system switches between cameras. Discrepancies in geometry and color response between cameras lead to “jumps” and sudden color changes.
  • Proper calibration of all cameras (both geometric and colorimetric) enables efficient correction and compensation schemes.
  • Our calibration significantly reduces errors compared to the state of the art and requires no expensive equipment.

  • When a robot arm grips objects based on camera input, positioning errors increase near the boundaries of the working area due to poor calibration quality. As a result, the robot may miss or damage the objects.
  • Our free-form model calibration ensures uniform accuracy across the entire frame.

  • Optical designers often use industrial cameras and high-end optics for demanding computer vision tasks. Costs can become significant, especially for multi-camera setups.
  • Mass-produced cameras with inexpensive (e.g., plastic) lenses may rival such systems in image quality but typically exhibit greater distortion.
  • By calibrating a free-form model that accurately captures these distortions, we can achieve performance equivalent to high-end systems in the final application.

FAQ

[open]
IS YOUR METHOD SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN?
Yes, it is. As the starting reference, please see the following publication: A. Pak, S. Reichel , J. Burke. Machine - learning - inspired workflow for camera calibration, Sensors 22(18), 6804 (2022).
[open]
Why do I need better camera calibration?
If you use a camera in any computer vision application, the calibration quality determines how accurately your computer perceives the real world. Moreover, if your camera settings or environment conditions change, it makes sense to regularly re-calibrate the cameras. Typical calibration workflows are cumbersome and prone to various errors and biases; we aim to remove unnecessary hurdles and provide access to top-quality calibration to anyone with a browser.
[open]
Can I calibrate a smartphone camera?
Probably. Many smartphones may be configured to behave as regular cameras, and will thus work just fine with our method of active targets. However, some premium smartphones may under the hood try to “improve” every picture by artificially painting or “hallucinating” some image details. This step may involve complex and undocumented algorithms that will interfere with our decoding logic, leading to poor-quality datasets.
[open]
Can I calibrate a DSLR camera?
Yes, but remember that changing any lens settings (F-number, zoom, or focus) may invalidate the calibration results.
[open]
Can I use a Full-HD display for calibration?
Yes, the resolution of 1920x1080 pixels is sufficient for high-quality calibration. A more important property, however, is the monitor’s size: in all calibration images, the displayed pattern must occupy the entirety or a significant portion of the camera’s field of view, while the resulting images should be free from excessive “moire” effects. For some cameras, this is easier achieved with high-density (4K or 8K) monitors.
[open]
Can I use a curved monitor?
In the current version of our software we only support flat rectangular screens. However, solutions using curved gaming screens are known and could be implemented in our framework if we see sufficient demand for this feature.
