Popis: Two novel linear camera calibration algorithms were investigated in this study. In general, an occluding contour circle of a sphere and the optical centre of a camera form a right circular cone, and the generalised eigenvectors of two right circular cones encode an infinity point that lies on two support planes containing the contour circle. In the image plane, a vanishing line can be determined by connecting two vanishing points. Furthermore, the direction of the diameter passing through the infinity point is orthogonal to the direction of its conjugate diameter; thus, a set of orthogonal vanishing points can be computed. The imaged circular points or orthogonal vanishing points provide constraints that enable the intrinsic parameters to be recovered completely. The results of simulations and comparison data obtained from actual experiments confirm the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed algorithms.
