Padua Research Archive, l’archivio istituzionale della produzione scientifica dell’Università degli Studi di Padova, ha lo scopo di raccogliere, documentare, conservare e pubblicare, anche ad accesso aperto, i prodotti della ricerca dell’Ateneo. Padua Research Archive utilizza la piattaforma IRIS (Institutional Research Information System) sviluppata da Cineca.
EnglishIn this tutorial chapter we present a package to calibrate multi-device vision systems such as camera networks or robots. The proposed approach is able to estimate – in a unique and consistent reference frame – the rigid displacements of all the sensors in a network of standard cameras, Kinect-like depth sensors and Time-of-Flight range sensors. The sensor poses can be estimated in a few minutes with a user-friendly procedure: the user is only asked to move a checkerboard around while the ROS nodes acquire the data and perform the calibration. To make the system scalable, the data analysis is distributed in the network. This results in a low bandwidth usage as well as a really fast calibration procedure. The ROS package is available on GitHub within the repository iaslab-unipd/calibration_toolkit1. The package has been developed for ROS Indigo in C++11 and Python, and tested on PCs equipped with Ubuntu 14.04 64bit.

| Abstract: | In this tutorial chapter we present a package to calibrate multi-device vision systems such as camera networks or robots. The proposed approach is able to estimate – in a unique and consistent reference frame – the rigid displacements of all the sensors in a network of standard cameras, Kinect-like depth sensors and Time-of-Flight range sensors. The sensor poses can be estimated in a few minutes with a user-friendly procedure: the user is only asked to move a checkerboard around while the ROS nodes acquire the data and perform the calibration. To make the system scalable, the data analysis is distributed in the network. This results in a low bandwidth usage as well as a really fast calibration procedure. The ROS package is available on GitHub within the repository iaslab-unipd/calibration_toolkit1. The package has been developed for ROS Indigo in C++11 and Python, and tested on PCs equipped with Ubuntu 14.04 64bit. |
