Abstract

A simple camera calibration method based on the principle of phase encoding and coordinate transformation is proposed. We use a reference coordinate frame encoded as a phase distribution by multiplexing the $x$ and $y$ directions. From this, we suggest a phase demodulation system. The coordinate transformation induced by the imaging is exploited to estimate the intrinsic and extrinsic camera parameters by using the least-squares method. Thus, a robust and noniterative estimation scheme is obtained. Simulations and experimental results show the feasibility of the proposal. Because of the potential for calibrating projectors, the proposed method could be used to calibrate fringe-projection systems.
