AN EFFICIENT AND ROBUST CAMERA EXTRINSIC PARAMETERS CALIBRATION ALGORITHM

Generally speaking, camera extrinsic parameters are composed of 3 rotation angles and a translation vector, which has 3 components, and the calibration process is to identify these 6 parameters. It can be proved that at least 3 corresponding points should be given for the process and when more than 3 points are given, the system is over determined and has to be solved by minimizing the RMS error. In this paper, a camera extrinsic parameters calibration algorithm or camera pose estimation algorithm is studied. The algorithm ensures its efficiency (20 milliseconds if no more than 9 corresponding points are given) and robustness by a good initial value guess and an omnidirectional search for poor input data. It has been successfully used in texture mapping for cultural relics such as a jade chisel from Jinsha and a Buddha statue from Zhejiang Provincial Museum.
