1. A calibration method for calibrating a stereo camera, the calibration method comprising:
- measuring a relative position between the stereo camera and an object that is placed so as to fall within an image capturing area of the stereo camera;
acquiring a captured image that is captured by the stereo camera and includes the object; and
determining a calibration parameter for calibrating the stereo camera based on the relative position and the captured image.

Abstract
A calibration method calibrates a stereo camera. The calibration method includes: measuring a relative position between the stereo camera and an object that is placed so as to fall within an image capturing area of the stereo camera; acquiring a captured image that is captured by the stereo camera and includes the object; and determining a calibration parameter for calibrating the stereo camera based on the relative position and the captured image.

8. A calibration method for calibrating a stereo camera by using a measurement tool that includes a first member having a surface that includes a chart that is used to calibrate the stereo camera, a light source that is installed on the surface and that emits light with a uniform intensity regardless of a position on the surface, and a second member that covers the light source and emits the light through a plurality of holes, the calibration method comprising:
-
acquiring a captured image that is captured by the stereo camera and includes the measurement tool as an object; measuring a deviation of a direction of the measurement tool from a facing position of the stereo camera based on a position of maximum brightness in the captured image; and determining a calibration parameter for calibrating the stereo camera based on the deviation of the direction of the measurement tool and the captured image. - View Dependent Claims (9)
