Calibration for stereo vision system based on phase matching and bundle adjustment algorithm

Calibration for stereo vision system plays an important role in the field of machine vision applications. The existing accurate calibration methods are usually carried out by capturing a high-accuracy calibration target with the same size as the measurement view. In in-situ 3D measurement and in large field of view measurement, the extrinsic parameters of the system usually need to be calibrated in real-time. Furthermore, the large high-accuracy calibration target in the field is a big challenge for manufacturing. Therefore, an accurate and rapid calibration method in the in-situ measurement is needed. In this paper, a novel calibration method for stereo vision system is proposed based on phase-based matching method and the bundle adjustment algorithm. As the camera is usually mechanically locked once adjusted appropriately after calibrated in lab, the intrinsic parameters are usually stable. We emphasize on the extrinsic parameters calibration in the measurement field. Firstly, the matching method based on heterodyne multi-frequency phase-shifting technique is applied to find thousands of pairs of corresponding points between images of two cameras. The large amount of pairs of corresponding points can help improve the accuracy of the calibration. Then the method of bundle adjustment in photogrammetry is used to optimize the extrinsic parameters and the 3D coordinates of the measured objects. Finally, the quantity traceability is carried out to transform the optimized extrinsic parameters from the 3D metric coordinate system into Euclid coordinate system to obtain the ultimate optimal extrinsic parameters. Experiment results show that the procedure of calibration takes less than 3 s. And, based on the stereo vision system calibrated by the proposed method, the measurement RMS (Root Mean Square) error can reach 0.025 mm when measuring the calibrated gauge with nominal length of 999.576 mm.

Line structured light vision sensor calibration using parallel straight lines features

Line structured light vision sensor (LSLVS) calibration is to establish the relation between the camera and the light plane projector. This paper proposes a geometrical calibration method for LSLVS via three parallel straight lines on a 2D target. The approach is based on the properties of vanishing points and lines. During the calibration, one important aspect is to determine the normal vector of the light plane, another critical step is to obtain the distance parameter d of the light plane. In this paper, we put the emphasis on the later one. The distance constraint of parallel straight lines is used to compute a 3D feature point on the light plane, resulting in the acquisition of the parameter d. Thus, the equation of the light plane in the camera coordinate frame (CCF) can be solved out. To evaluate the performance of the algorithm, possible factors affecting the calibration accuracy are taken into account. Furthermore, mathematical formulations for error propagation are derived. Both computer simulations and real experiments have been carried out to validate our method, and the RMS error of the real calibration reaches 0.134 mm within the field of view 500 mm × 500 mm.     

近景大视场角分区域标定方法研究

针对飞行试验测量视场大相机标定精度低的问题,提出一种高精度CCD相机分区域标定方法。该方法首先通过将标靶均匀布置在摄像机视场内,使得标靶尽可能均匀错落地充满整个视场范围,再结合人眼判读的方式求解靶标的像面位置,最终与全站仪三维坐标形成精确的空间标定点集。接着,将像平面按横向方向等间距分割成Ｎ个区域,并结合后方交会的方法分别对每个子区域进行相机参数的计算。实验结果表明：经过分区域标定,相机采集点的总误差比单区域标定法降低了4％(Ｎ＝3)。算法可实现指定区域的相机参数计算,基本满足中高等精度的工业测量要求。所本文研究可应用于位置相对固定不变的工业视觉测量,特别是大工件测量领域。     

An absolute phase to world coordinates method for the defocusing structured light shape measurement system

This paper proposes a flexible calibration method for the defocusing structured light three-dimensional (3D) imaging system. Neither a high accuracy translation stage nor the parameters of the projector is required. Therefore the method is more flexible in many practical applications. World coordinates for calibration are obtained based on the method of coordinates from known plane. The monotonic nonlinear relationships between the absolute phase and each world coordinate have been investigated. Different from other methods, in our method, the 3D shape is directly recovered by the absolute phase to world coordinates method. Experimental results show that, when polynomial curve fitting methods are used, the root-mean-squared (RMS) error for the flat plate reconstruction is less than 0.12 mm, and the measurement error of 3D points is less than −0.34%. Furthermore, when comparing the measurement results of our method with the method of coordinates from known plane based on camera calibration, the relative error is less than −0.05%. Therefore, camera calibration is considered as the major error source.

Constructing feature points for calibrating a structured light vision sensor by viewing a plane from unknown orientations

To calibrate a structured light vision sensor, it is necessary to obtain at least four non-collinear feature points that fall on the light stripe plane. We propose a novel method to construct non-collinear feature points used for calibrating a structured light vision sensor with a planar calibration object. After the planar calibration object is moved freely in the range of measuring of the structured light vision sensor at least twice, all the local world coordinates of the feature points falling on the light stripe plane can be readily obtained in site. The global world coordinates of the non-collinear feature points in the local world coordinate frame can be computed through the three-dimensional (3D) camera coordinate frame. A planar calibration object is designed according to the proposed approach to provide accurate feature points. The experiments conducted on a real structured light vision sensor that consists of a camera and a single-light-stripe-plane laser projector reveal that the proposed approach has high accuracy and is practical in the vision inspection applications. The proposed approach greatly reduces the cost of the calibration equipment and simplifies the calibrating procedure. It advances structured light vision inspection one step from laboratory environments to real world use.     

Large depth-of-view portable three-dimensional laser scanner and its segmental calibration for robot vision

A portable 3D laser scanning system has been designed and built for robot vision. By tilting the charge coupled device (CCD) plane of portable 3D scanning system according to the Scheimpflug condition, the depth-of-view is successfully extended from less than 40 to 100 mm. Based on the tilted camera model, the traditional two-step camera calibration method is modified by introducing the angle factor. Meanwhile, a novel segmental calibration approach, i.e., dividing the whole work range into two parts and calibrating, respectively, with corresponding system parameters, is proposed to effectively improve the measurement accuracy of the large depth-of-view 3D laser scanner. In the process of 3D reconstruction, different calibration parameters are used to transform the 2D coordinates into 3D coordinates according to the different positions of the image in the CCD plane, and the measurement accuracy of is obtained experimentally. Finally, the experiment of scanning a lamina by the large depth-of-view portable 3D laser scanner used by an industrial robot IRB 4400 is also employed to demonstrate the effectiveness and high measurement accuracy of our scanning system.     

Rotation axis calibration of a turntable using constrained global optimization

For determining the rotation axis as the baseline to transform between camera and turntable coordinate frames, rotation axis calibration of a turntable using constrained global optimization is proposed. At the beginning, camera parameters are calibrated using multiple views of only one pattern positioned differently and 3D corner points are retrieved with the pattern placed onto the rotation turntable in a 360° view. Then the rotation axis direction vector is decided under the constraint of the distance between each closed circle trajectory plane and each circle with its center is determined by fitting the circle with global least squares method, respectively. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is effective for estimating the parameters of rotation axis.     

3D coordinate measurement based on inverse photogrammetry and fringe analysis

A method based on inverse photogrammetry and fringe analysis is presented for 3D coordinate measurement. Measurement system mainly consists of a micro-camera fixed on one end of a measuring rod, a measuring probe on the other end and a liquid crystal display screen for displaying 2D fringe pattern in the measurement. In the measurement process, the probe contacts the surface of the measured object, and the CCD camera captures the stripes image on displays screen. The coordinates of camera principal point in the world coordinate system may be determined by the phase information carried in the fringe pattern. The coordinate relations between the principal point of the camera and the measuring probe can be determined with a least square optimization technique in camera coordinate system. This method has the advantage of large measurement range, good flexibility, and portable, which is suitable for field measurement. A result of our method is compared with that of the Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM), which shows that the measurement accuracy of this method can meet accuracy requirement of the field measurement in large dimension.
