Holistic systems and methods are used for calibrating image capture devices. An image capture device includes a lens, an image sensor, an inertial measurement unit (IMU), and an image signal processor (ISP). The image sensor detects images as frames and the IMU captures motion data. The ISP detects one or more key points on the frames and matches the one or more key points between the frames. The ISP computes one or more calibration parameters. The one or more calibration parameters are based on the matched key points and a model. The model includes an optical component, an IMU component, and a sensor component. The ISP performs a calibration using the calibration parameters.

A method for calculating a distance between a vehicle camera and an object, the method may include: (a) obtaining an image that was acquired by the vehicle camera of a vehicle; the image captures the horizon, the object, and road lane boundaries; (b) determining an initial row-location horizon estimate and a row-location contact point estimate, the contact point is between the object and a road on which the vehicle is positioned; (c) determining a vehicle camera roll angle correction that once applied will cause the lanes boundaries to be parallel to each other in the real world; (d) calculating a new row-location horizon estimate, wherein the calculating comprises updating the row-location horizon estimate based on the vehicle camera roll angle correction; and (e) calculating the distance between the vehicle camera based on a difference between the new row-location horizon estimate and the row-location contact point estimate.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for monitoring events using a Virtual Inductive Loop system. In some implementations, image data is obtained from cameras. A region depicted in the obtained image data is identified, the region comprising lines spaced by a distance that satisfies a distance threshold. For each line included in the region: an object depicted crossing the line is determined whether to satisfy a height criteria indicating that the line is activated. In response to determining that an object depicted crossing the line satisfies the height criteria, an event is determined to have likely occurred using data indicating (i) which lines of the lines were activated and (ii) an order in which each of the lines were activated. In response to determining that an event likely occurred, actions are performed using at least some of the data.
