CALIBRATION DEVICE AND CALIBRATION METHOD
First Claim
1. A calibration device for measuring relative positions and relative attitudes of a rigid body disposed on the ground and a vehicle, the calibration device comprising:
- a measured distance input device that receives, based on an input operation performed by an operator, measurement values of respective distances between two points on the basis of a plurality of vehicle-based points having known coordinates on a vehicle-based coordinate system that is defined in accordance with a stopping position of the vehicle and includes an origin and two axes located on the ground, and a plurality of rigid body-based points having known coordinates on a rigid body-based coordinate system that is defined by a disposal location of a marker serving as the rigid body disposed on the ground and includes an origin and two axes located on the ground, the two points being constituted by a combination of one of the plurality of vehicle-based points and one of the plurality of rigid body-based points; and
a calibration parameter calculation device that calculates a relative attitude of the rigid body-based coordinate system and a relative position of the origin thereof on the vehicle-based coordinate system as calibration parameters on the basis of the respective measurement values and a captured image including the marker, which is captured by a camera that is mounted on the vehicle and subjected to calibration,the calibration parameter calculation device comprising;
a coordinate calculator that calculates coordinates of the plurality of rigid body-based points on the vehicle-based coordinate system from the respective measurement values; and
a parameter calculator that calculates the relative attitude and the relative position of the origin as the calibration parameters from a correspondence relationship between positions of image coordinates of the plurality of rigid body-based points included in the captured image and the coordinates of the plurality of rigid body-based points on the vehicle-based coordinate system.

Abstract
A calibration device includes: a coordinate calculator that calculates coordinates of a plurality of rigid body-based points on a vehicle-based coordinate system from measurement values of respective distances between two points constituted by a combination of one of a plurality of vehicle-based points and one of the plurality of rigid body-based points, the plurality of vehicle-based points having known coordinates on the vehicle-based coordinate system and the plurality of rigid body-based points having known coordinates on a rigid body-based coordinate system; and a parameter calculator that calculates a relative attitude and a relative position of an origin as calibration parameters from a correspondence relationship between positions of image coordinates of the plurality of rigid body-based points within a captured image and the coordinates of the plurality of rigid body-based points on the vehicle-based coordinate system.
