METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CALIBRATING A CAMERA OF A VEHICLE
First Claim
1. A method for calibrating a camera (32) of a vehicle (30), based on a calibration medium (20) comprising at least a first calibration reference (24), the calibration medium (20) comprising a mirror (26) and the vehicle (30) comprising at least a second calibration reference (34), wherein the method comprises:
- a first step (E1) of determining the spatial compensation values between the camera (32) and the first calibration reference (24),a second step (E2) of determining the spatial compensation values between the camera (32) and the image (IM) of the second calibration reference (34) via the mirror (26),a third step (E3) of determining the spatial compensation values between the camera (32) and the second calibration reference (34) on the basis of the spatial compensation values determined in the first step (E1) and the second step (E2),a fourth step (E4) of determining the spatial compensation values between the camera (32) and the vehicle (30) on the basis of the spatial compensation values between the vehicle (30) and the second calibration reference (34).

Abstract
A method, a medium (20) and a system (10) for calibrating a camera (32) of a vehicle (30). The calibration system (10) is remarkable in that it includes a calibration medium (20), including at least a first calibration reference (24) and a mirror (26), and a vehicle (30), including at least a second calibration reference (34). The method can be used to calibrate the camera (32) by determining the spatial compensation values between the camera (32) and the vehicle (30), without any need to align the vehicle (30) perfectly facing the calibration medium (20).
