Description

Camera imaging calibration device and camera imaging calibration method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of camera imaging, in particular to a camera imaging calibration device and a camera imaging calibration method.
Background
At present, 2D and 3D cameras are widely applied to the field of smart phones for geometric measurement machine vision and even daily life. There is an increasing demand for the camera market. The 3D camera uses an optical method of structured light to project a group of light patterns constructed by mathematical methods, objects in a visual field range are illuminated according to a certain sequence, and the distance from the camera to the objects, namely the depth data of the camera, is calculated. The geometric information of the object in the three-dimensional space can be obtained by using the technology, so that the model of the whole three-dimensional space is restored. In order to make the resulting image data more accurate before the camera is used, an accurate camera imaging geometry model must be built. The process of calculating the geometric model parameters is the calibration of the camera.
The existing camera calibration technical methods have three types: a traditional camera calibration method, a camera self-calibration method and an active vision camera calibration method. The three calibration methods all require the camera to make corresponding motions, images of a plurality of calibration objects are shot in different visual angles, and then the internal parameters and the external parameters of the camera are calculated through respective algorithms. There are two types of calibration schemes currently used most: 1. the camera is manually held, and the camera can shoot images of the calibration objects from various angles by manually moving the camera; 2. the camera is arranged at the tail end of the mechanical arm, and the shooting angle of the camera is controlled through the movement of the mechanical arm, so that the camera calibration is completed. One of the existing technical schemes of the method is that a camera is fixed on a mechanical arm, and through translational and rotational movement of the mechanical arm, the camera can shoot calibration object images used for calibration at different angles, so that internal and external parameters of the camera are calculated.
The above technical solution 1 has the disadvantage that the working efficiency is too low, which is not suitable for scenes with large workload, and the accurate information of the camera motion cannot be obtained, so that the camera calibration method based on active vision cannot be used. Although the technical scheme 2 effectively compensates the defect of the scheme 1, the mechanical arm is expensive at present, so that the overall cost is high, and the mechanical arm needs to be familiar with simple motion control used by the mechanical arm, so that the operation difficulty is high.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present invention and are not limited thereto.
As shown in fig. 1, a camera imaging calibration device includes a base 100, a moving mechanism 200 for driving the base 100 to move in a directional manner, a Z-axis rotating mechanism 300 disposed on the base 100 and rotating around a Z-axis of the base 100, a Y-axis rotating mechanism 400 connected to the Z-axis rotating mechanism 300 and rotating around a Y-axis perpendicular to the Z-axis, an X-axis rotating mechanism 500 connected to the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400 and rotating around an X-axis perpendicular to the Z-axis and the Y-axis, and a camera fixture 600 fixed to an output end of the X-axis rotating mechanism 500.
When the camera imaging calibration device is used, a camera is firstly installed on the camera clamp 600, and then the moving mechanism 200 drives the base 100 to move directionally, so that the camera clamp 600 is driven to move integrally through the Z-axis rotating mechanism 300, the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400 and the X-axis rotating mechanism 500, and the camera reaches a specified shooting position; after the camera reaches the specified shooting position, the camera clamp 600 can be driven to move in the three-dimensional direction through the movements of the Z-axis rotating mechanism 300, the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400 and the X-axis rotating mechanism 500 around the corresponding Z-axis, Y-axis and X-axis respectively, so that the camera can simply and efficiently shoot at multiple angles at the specified shooting position.
In addition, the base 100, the moving mechanism 200, the Z-axis rotating mechanism 300, the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400 and the X-axis rotating mechanism 500 adopted by the camera imaging calibration device can simplify the device, reduce the cost and facilitate the operation.
In order to simplify the Z-axis rotating mechanism 300 and improve the accuracy thereof, as shown in fig. 2, for example, the Z-axis rotating mechanism 300 may be provided to include a first servo rotating motor 310 and a first supporter 320 fixed to the base 100, wherein an output shaft of the first servo rotating motor 310 is drivingly connected to a driving end of the first supporter 320, and a connection end of the first supporter 320 is connected to the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400.
The shape of the first supporter 320 may be varied, and it is preferable that the first supporter 320 shown in fig. 2 has a bent bar-shaped structure, which can improve the elasticity of the first supporter 320 on the one hand and facilitate the connection of the first supporter 320 with the Y-axis rotation mechanism 400 on the other hand. Of course, one of the two ends of the first supporter 320 in fig. 2 may be regarded as the driving end of the first supporter 320, and the other end may be regarded as the connection end of the first supporter 320.
In order to conveniently adjust the position of the camera in the Y-axis direction, for example, a first adjusting member 330 may be added to the Z-axis rotating mechanism 300, and the output shaft of the first servo rotating motor 310 may be in driving connection with the driving end of the first bracket 320 through the first adjusting member 330, so that the position of the first bracket 320 may be adjusted along the Y-axis direction by the first adjusting member 330, so that the camera clamp 600 moves correspondingly through the overall movement of the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400 and the X-axis rotating mechanism 500, and finally the camera on the camera clamp 600 moves in the corresponding Y-axis direction, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the position of the camera in the Y-axis direction.
To facilitate the adjustment of the first bracket 320 by the first adjusting member 330, a first axial adjusting hole 331 having a shape matching the driving end of the first bracket 320 may be added to the first adjusting member 330. The adjusting design is simple to use, convenient to control, convenient to process and low in cost. Further, the first adjusting member 330 may also be an adjusting tape with a scale, etc. to facilitate more precise adjustment of the first bracket 320.
In order to improve the accuracy of the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400 while simplifying it, for example, as shown in fig. 3, the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400 may be provided to include a second servo rotating motor 410 and a second bracket 420, wherein the second servo rotating motor 410 is fixed to a connection end of the first bracket 320, and an output shaft of the second servo rotating motor 410 is drivingly connected to a driving end of the second bracket 420, and the connection end of the second bracket 420 is connected to the X-axis rotating mechanism 500.
In order to facilitate adjusting the position of the camera in the X-axis direction thereof, for example, a second adjusting member 430 may be added to the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400, and an output shaft of the second servo rotating motor 410 may be drivingly connected to the driving end of the second bracket 420 through the second adjusting member 430. Thus, the second adjusting member 430 can adjust the position of the second bracket 420 along the X-axis direction, so that the camera holder 600 can move correspondingly by the overall movement of the X-axis rotating mechanism 500, and finally the camera on the camera holder 600 can move in the corresponding X-axis direction, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the position of the camera in the X-axis direction
To facilitate the adjustment of the first bracket 320 by the second adjustment member 430, a second axial adjustment hole 431 may be added to the second adjustment member 430 to match the shape of the driving end of the second bracket 420. The adjusting design is simple to use, convenient to control, convenient to process and low in cost. The second adjustment member 430 for fine adjustment may also be an adjustment blade with a scale or the like.
To improve stability of the camera jig 600 in motion, the second bracket 420 may be exemplarily provided in a U-shape, wherein a middle portion of the second bracket 420 is configured as a driving end of the second bracket 420, and both ends of the second bracket 420 are configured as connection ends of the second bracket 420.
In order to improve the accuracy of the X-axis rotation mechanism 500 while simplifying it, the X-axis rotation mechanism 500 may be provided to include a third servo rotation motor 510, as illustrated in fig. 4, the third servo rotation motor 510 being fixed to the connection end of the second bracket 420, and an output shaft of the third servo rotation motor 510 being drivingly connected to the camera jig 600.
In order to facilitate adjusting the position of the camera in the Z-axis direction thereof, for example, a third adjusting member 520 may be added to the X-axis rotation mechanism 500, and an output shaft of the third servo rotation motor 510 may be drivingly connected to the camera holder 600 through the third adjusting member 520. Thus, the position of the camera holder 600 can be adjusted along the Z-axis direction by the third adjusting member 520, so that the camera holder 600 moves correspondingly, and finally the camera on the camera holder 600 moves in the corresponding Z-axis direction, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the position of the camera in the Z-axis direction.
Preferably, a third axial adjustment hole 521 matching the shape of the camera jig 600 may be provided on the third adjustment member 520. The adjusting design is simple to use, convenient to control, convenient to process and low in cost. The third adjuster 520 for fine adjustment may also be an adjusting tape with a scale or the like.
In addition, in order to simplify the structure and make the product compact, the third adjusting members 520 are two and are respectively pivoted to two ends of the second bracket 420, and the third servo rotary motor 510 is fixed to one end of the second bracket 420 and is in driving connection with the camera fixture 600 through the corresponding third adjusting members 520.
Further, as shown in fig. 5, the camera fixture 600 includes a U-shaped frame 610 and a plurality of clamping holes 620 formed on the U-shaped frame 610, and two ends of the U-shaped frame 610 are respectively connected to the corresponding third adjusting members 520. Therefore, it is preferable that the third axial adjustment hole 521 of the third adjustment member 520 also matches the shape of both ends of the U-shaped frame 610. The camera is clamped by the U-shaped frame 610, so that the supporting stress is uniform and the fixing is reliable; the clamping range can be flexibly adjusted through the clamping holes 620 to adapt to cameras with different types and specifications, so that the product has higher universality and higher practicability. Other adjustment and fixation means, such as sliding adjustment, compression or locking fixation, etc., are possible in addition to the clamping holes 620.
To facilitate the arrangement of the camera power line and the data communication line, as shown in fig. 6 and 7, for example, a wiring mechanism 210 corresponding to the moving mechanism 200 may be further added to the camera imaging calibration device, where the wiring mechanism 210 has a plurality of wiring grooves 211.
Of course, the camera imaging calibration device can be applied to any one of the three calibration methods of the traditional camera calibration method, the camera self-calibration method and the active vision camera calibration method in camera calibration.
In one embodiment, the camera calibration is performed by adopting a traditional camera calibration method or a camera self-calibration method, and the two methods do not need to acquire the motion data of the camera, so the calibration work of the camera to be calibrated by combining the camera imaging calibration device is realized by the following steps:
step S100, adjusting the position of a camera to be calibrated in a camera imaging calibration device to enable a photosensitive sensor of the camera to be calibrated to be positioned at a rotation center;
in the above steps, the adjustment of the position of the camera to be calibrated may be achieved by selecting the camera fixture 600 matched with the camera to be calibrated, for example, an appropriate camera fixture 600 may be selected according to the specification of the camera to be calibrated, or the camera to be calibrated may be adjusted in a fixed mounting position on the camera fixture 600, for example, the camera may be adjusted through the clamping hole 620 on the camera fixture 600; preferably, after the camera to be calibrated is fixed on the camera fixture 600, the position of the camera to be calibrated can be further adjusted by axial adjustment of one or more of the first adjusting member 330, the second adjusting member 430 and the third adjusting member 520, so that the photosensitive sensor is located at the rotation center. And the rotation center can be determined in advance according to the calibration requirement.
Step S200, fixing the calibration object in the visual field range of the camera to be calibrated; it will be appreciated that the choice of calibration material will depend on the actual calibration situation and will vary in different embodiments.
Step S300, controlling the camera to be calibrated to move through a camera imaging calibration device so as to shoot and acquire image data of a calibration object in different directions;
specifically, the moving mechanism, the Z-axis rotating mechanism 300, the Y-axis rotating mechanism 400 and the X-axis rotating mechanism 500 are controlled to operate so as to drive the camera to be calibrated to move through the camera fixture 600, thereby shooting and acquiring image data of the calibration object under different angles (i.e. different orientations) of different positions. Wherein the movement of the camera may be a translation in three dimensions, a movement in one degree of freedom in a multi-angle rotation around its centre of rotation, or a movement in multiple degrees of freedom.
Step S400, calculating the internal and external parameters of the camera to be calibrated according to the image data by adopting a traditional camera calibration method or a camera self-calibration method.
In another embodiment, in one embodiment, an active vision camera calibration method is used to calibrate a camera, where the method needs to accurately obtain motion data of the camera, so that calibration of the camera to be calibrated by combining the camera imaging calibration device is implemented by the following steps:
step S100, adjusting the position of a camera to be calibrated in a camera imaging calibration device to enable a photosensitive sensor of the camera to be calibrated to be positioned at a rotation center;
in the above steps, the adjustment of the position of the camera to be calibrated may be achieved by selecting the camera fixture 600 matched with the camera to be calibrated, for example, an appropriate camera fixture 600 may be selected according to the specification of the camera to be calibrated, or the camera to be calibrated may be adjusted in a fixed mounting position on the camera fixture 600, for example, the camera may be adjusted through the clamping hole 620 on the camera fixture 600; preferably, after the camera to be calibrated is fixed on the camera fixture 600, the position of the camera to be calibrated can be further adjusted by axial adjustment of one or more of the first adjusting member 330, the second adjusting member 430 and the third adjusting member 520, so that the photosensitive sensor is located at the rotation center. And the rotation center can be determined in advance according to the calibration requirement.
Step S200, fixing a calibration object in the visual field range of the camera to be calibrated and determining the motion trail of the camera to be calibrated;
it will be appreciated that the choice of calibration material will depend on the actual calibration situation and will vary in different embodiments. The active vision camera calibration method also needs to determine the motion trail of the camera to be calibrated in the calibration process, wherein the motion trail refers to the translation distance of the camera to be calibrated in all directions and the rotation radian or rotation angle of the camera to be calibrated in all directions in the calibration process
Step S300, controlling a camera to be calibrated to move along a movement track of the camera to be calibrated through a camera imaging calibration device so as to shoot and acquire image data of a calibration object in different directions;
in the above steps, the Z-axis rotation mechanism 300, the Y-axis rotation mechanism 400 and the X-axis rotation mechanism 500 may be controlled to operate to drive the camera to be calibrated to move through the camera fixture 600, so as to capture and acquire the image data of the calibration object at different angles (i.e. different orientations) of different positions at the preset position. The camera to be calibrated can be translated in three dimensions, rotated in multiple angles around its center of rotation, or moved in multiple degrees of freedom.
