Abstract:
The chapter studies the calibration of four parameters of a rotating CCD line sensor, which are the effective focal length and the principal row (which are part of the intrinsic calibration), and the off-axis distance and the principal angle (which are part of the extrinsic calibration). It is shown that this calibration problem can be solved by considering two independent subtasks, first the calibration of both intrinsic parameters, and then of both extrinsic parameters. The chapter introduces and discusses different methods for the calibration of these four parameters. Results are compared based on experiments using a super-high resolution line-based panoramic camera. It turns out that the second subtask is solved best if a straight-segment based approach is used, compared to point-based or correspondence-based calibration methods; these approaches are already known for traditional (planar) pinhole cameras, and this chapter discusses their use for calibrating panoramic cameras. © 2006 Springer.
