A Novel Method of Stereo Camera Calibration Using BP Neural Network

Article Preview

Abstract:

Camera calibration establishes the relationship between 2D coordinates in the image and 3D coordinates in the 3D world. BP neural network can model non-linear relationship, and therefore was used for calibrating camera by avoiding the non-linear factors of the camera in this paper. The calibration results are compared with the results of Tsai’s two stage method. The comparison show that calibration method based BP neural network improved the calibration accuracy.
