Fixed pattern calibration for multi-view stitching
11587259 · 2023-02-21 · ·

An apparatus includes an interface and a processor. The interface may be configured to receive pixel data representing respective fields of view of two or more cameras arranged to obtain a predetermined field of view, where the respective fields of view of each adjacent pair of the two or more cameras overlap. The processor may be configured to process the pixel data arranged as video frames and perform a fixed pattern calibration for facilitating multi-view stitching. The fixed pattern calibration may comprise applying a pose calibration process to the video frames. The pose calibration process generally uses (i) intrinsic parameters, a respective translate vector, a respective rotation matrix, and distortion parameters for each lens of the two or more cameras and (ii) a calibration board to obtain configuration parameters for the respective fields of view of the two or more cameras. The pose calibration process may comprise changing a z value of the respective translate vector for each lens of the two or more cameras to at least one of a middle distance value and a long distance value while maintaining the respective rotation matrix for each lens of the two or more cameras unchanged.
