    This study introduces a new camera calibration method using mirror symmetric objects. It accurately determines camera parameters without needing 3D point data, simplifying the calibration process.

    Area of Science:

    • Computer Vision
    • Robotics
    • Computational Geometry

    Background:

    • Traditional camera calibration methods often require known 3D structures or complex calibration patterns.
    • Existing techniques may rely on specific geometric properties like orthogonality or pole-polar relationships, limiting their applicability.
    • Accurate camera calibration is crucial for various applications, including 3D reconstruction, augmented reality, and autonomous navigation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a novel and simplified camera calibration method.
    • To develop a technique that does not require prior knowledge of 3D feature point coordinates.
    • To offer an accurate calibration solution using readily available mirror symmetric objects.

    Main Methods:

    • The method leverages images of a mirror symmetric object, assuming unit aspect ratio and zero skew.
