A few links related to camera calibration (collected by Jean-Yves Bouguet)

• Camera calibration toolbox on matlab from the University of Oulu, Finland (Janne Heikkilä and Olli Silven) - A reference in camera calibration. Unfortunately, the code does not include corner extraction. We used their intrinsic camera model in that present implementation.



• A Flexible New Technique for Camera Calibration - Zhengyou Zhang - Microsoft Research - Great recent work on calibration. A must see. Our toolbox has been greatly inspired from this work. The software is available online, however, it does not include corner extraction.



• Tsai Camera Calibration Software - A classic! Everyone interested in camera calibration should know about that link. No image corner extraction included.



• Reg Willson's Home Page at CMU - A reference page on zoom lens modeling, calibration... Also links to Tsai code that he is maintaining. A very useful link to keep.



• Gideon P. Stein's Personal Page at MIT (media Lab) - Very good work on 3D reconstruction and calibration by Gideon Stein. A very good overview of lens distortion models. A good link to keep.



• Camera calibration toolbox for matlab from Hynek Bakstein and Radim Halir - A quite good camera calibration toolbox for matlab. Unfortunately, the code does not include image corner extraction. This page also contains the thesis of Hynek Bakstein on Camera Calibration.



• A Method to Solve Interior and Exterior Camera Calibration Parameters for Image Resection - A project done at NASA on iterative method for calibration. Observe that the camera model used in that report is identical to ours, and the iterative method is also identical (based on Newton-Raphson). An interesting report.



• Computer vision research at the Industrial Research Limited (New Zealand) - A large body of work on calibration of cameras, structured lighting systems, ... A very interesting number of research papers. A must see. Alternative download location.



• The Photogrammetric Measurement Group (PMG) at the University of WARWICK - An excellent description of the calibration method coming from Zhang and Heikkila, and our toolbox. They also designed a set of excellent pages covering many other topics related to photogrammetry. A must see.



• Jean-Philippe Tarel's home page - A lot of interesting work on Camera calibration, stereo, 3D modeling... Visit also his camera calibration software page: Camcal v1..0.



• Camera calibration toolbox from the Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics, Germany - A very complete tool for camera calibration (including corner extraction). Unfortunately, the code does not seem to be available.



• TotalCalib software (Sylvain Bougnoux) - Very powerful semi-automatic camera calibration tool based on image point correspondence (also known as self-calibration) - Designed at INRIA. Unfortunately, the software is not freely available (or so it seems).



• Links to the DLT method for calibration - A good source of information about the DLT method for camera calibration.



• Machine Vision Toolbox for matlab - A large collection of matlab routines for machine vision applications, including camera calibration. I have not tried this toolbox.



• Sherlock32 : Free Machine Vision Software - An interesting machine vision software (not free). I have not tried it.



• Camera Calibration Without Feature Extraction (Luc Robert) - Very interesting research on camera calibration.



• CVonline: System Models, Calibration and Parameter Estimation - A major reference on calibration, and computer vision in general. Visit the main CVonline page as well.



• Automatic Feature Point Extraction for Light Field Camera Calibration - Project Report - Bennett Wilburn - Stanford - An interesting project on calibration. Take a look.



• Semiautomatic Camera Lens Calibration from Partially known structure - A project done at the MIT media labs that uses the same camera model as we are to undistort images.



• Kinetic Sciences Inc. (KSI) - Opti-CAL camera calibration package - A complete camera calibration package for Machintosh. Not free!



• MVTec HALCON - The Software Solution for Machine Vision Applications - A machine vision package providing a number of tools, including camera calibration. Not free!
