Abstract
The line structure light three-dimensional reconstruction system is a kind of three-dimensional non-contact measurement system, which has the advantages of high precision, high speed, small damage to objects and strong adaptability. Camera calibration is a major factor that constrains the accuracy of 3D measurement systems. The camera calibration is based on the pinhole imaging model, and through a series of complex calculations, the camera’s internal parameters (focal length, distortion coefficient) and external parameters (rotation matrix and translation vector). The different calibration methods use different calibration targets, which can be divided into 3D calibration targets, 2D calibration targets, and one-dimensional calibration targets according to the characteristics of the calibration targets. This paper mainly discusses: calibration content and significance, calibration methods for different targets and evaluation methods for calibration of different targets. Firstly, the content and significance of calibration are expounded. Then, according to different calibration targets, the calibration algorithm is analyzed. Finally, the calibration algorithm is analyzed and summarized, and the development trends, advantages and disadvantages of different calibration methods are pointed out.
