Area of Science:

  • Computer Vision
  • Robotics
  • Metrology

Background:

  • Accurate structural parameter calibration is essential for high-precision measurements using binocular stereo vision sensors (BSVS).
  • Existing calibration methods may lack robustness or require complex setups.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and validate a novel method for calibrating the structural parameters of BSVS.
  • To achieve high-precision measurements using a double-sphere target for calibration.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizes a double-sphere target placed in various positions and orientations.
  • Employs image points of sphere centers and depth-scale factors to determine spatial plane normals.
  • Solves rotation matrix (R) and translation vector (T) using epipolar geometry and refines them via nonlinear optimization.

Main Results:

  • The proposed method demonstrates high measurement accuracy, exceeding 0.9‰.
  • Simulations confirm robustness against image noise, target placement variations, and depth-scale factor uncertainties.
  • Experimental results validate the method's effectiveness in real-world scenarios.

Conclusions:

  • The double-sphere target calibration method provides a reliable and accurate approach for BSVS.
  • The technique offers a practical solution for achieving sub-millimeter measurement accuracy in diverse applications.
