Camera Calibration Data Component

The Camera Calibration Data Component is an essential piece of information required by algorithms needing camera calibration. This component can be attached to any data, for example an image set or a point cloud. It specifies the intrinsics and potentially extrinsics of a camera used to produce this data. Use “Inspect properties” or Edit Camera Calibration Algorithm to add, view or edit the data component.

Contents of Camera Calibration Data Component

imageSize - width and height of an image captured by the camera.

K - intrinsic camera calibration matrix of the camera.

distortion - distortion parameters of the camera distortion model (k1 k2 p1 p2 k3). Refer to this tutorial for more information.

registration - euclidian transformation (SE(3)) of the camera coordinate system to the world coordinate system.

Creating a Camera Calibration Data Component

If this data component is needed by an algorithm, but not attached by the data creating algorithm, it can be added manually. To do that, one can use the Edit Camera Calibration Algorithm.
