Problems solved by technology

[0006] In addition, for large-scale measured objects, multiple cameras are often used for simultaneous measurement during actual measurement, and there is no relative positional relationship between multiple cameras, so each camera needs to be calibrated separately, which increases the calibration workload. At the same time, it will increase the calibration error, resulting in a decrease in measurement accuracy.

Embodiment 2

[0055] On the basis of Embodiment 1, this embodiment describes in detail the process of the camera calibration method using the laser photogrammetry system described in Embodiment 1.

[0056] This embodiment provides a camera calibration method for a laser photogrammetry system. First, obtain the coordinates of each object-space identification point 16 in the object-space coordinate system, and then adjust the measuring device 11 so that the two cameras are facing the object-space model to take pictures. Image data of 24 object space identification points 16. The image coordinates of each object space identification point 16 are read out by the execution program of the camera calibration method on the computer 9, and the two cameras and the laser are calculated by the execution program using the correspondence between the object space coordinates of the object space identification point 16 and the image coordinates. The pose coordinates and internal orientation element paramet...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a laser photogrammetry system and a camera calibration method, belonging to the technical field of measurement device calibration methods. Background technique [0002] With the development of computer technology, photogrammetry and 3D reconstruction technology have been widely used in the fields of robot vision, industrial manufacturing, engineering construction, cultural relic protection and medical image analysis. Compared with using contact measuring instruments such as three-coordinate measuring instruments to measure the outer surface of objects, non-contact measurements such as laser scanning use non-contact photoelectric methods to quickly measure the three-dimensional shape of curved surfaces. With the advantages of high precision and wide application, it has certain application prospects in industrial engineering and other fields. In the measurement process, based on the image acquired by the visual sensor (such as a...
