For example, when the three-dimensional object 100 is fixed on a calibrated object, some of the object surfaces are occluded, but some of the object surfaces are highlighted, so that image data can be easily acquired, and through reasonable design, even if some of the object surfaces are occluded, the remaining object elements 14 on the visible object surfaces can still meet the requirements of acquisition and calculation. By collecting and calculating the target elements 14 of a plurality of target surfaces, the accuracy of positioning is improved.

And comparing and calculating the values calculated according to the target surfaces of different groups, wherein if the wheel positioning information calculated according to the target surfaces of each group is consistent or smaller than a preset error range, the wheel positioning information accords with a factory state, and the three-dimensional target 100 does not have structural variation, so that inaccurate measurement is caused, such as aging deformation or impact deformation. Based on this, if the values calculated according to the target surfaces of the respective groups are inconsistent or have large deviations, and do not conform to the factory state, the three-dimensional target 100 needs to be replaced or returned to the factory for calibration.
Specifically, in this embodiment, the outer shape of the base 10 is a step shape, the base 10 includes a first step 41, a second step 42 and a third step 43 which are sequentially connected as an integral body, an end surface of the first step 41 is provided with a first target surface 11, an end surface of the second step 42 is provided with a second target surface 12, and an end surface of the third step 43 is provided with a third target surface 13, wherein the first target surface 11, the second target surface 12 and the third target surface 13 are all arranged in parallel, and the first target surface 11, the second target surface 12 and the third target surface 13 face to the same horizontal direction.

The base 10 can be fixed to an object to be calibrated (for example, a wheel 400 of a vehicle to be calibrated) through the fixing hole 31. Optionally, the mounting cavity 30 is recessed from a side surface of the base 10 toward an inside of the base 10, wherein an extending direction of the mounting cavity 30 is perpendicular to an orientation direction of the first target surface 11.
In this embodiment, the installation cavity 30 is concavely provided on the base 10, so that the three-dimensional target 100 can be flexibly and conveniently installed on the object to be calibrated, and at the same time, the target surface on the base 10 is prevented from being shielded by the object to be calibrated or the fixing member as much as possible.
In other embodiments, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the first target surface 11 and the second target surface 12 are not parallel.
Based on the three-dimensional target 100 shown in fig. 2 to 4 and in combination with the application scenario shown in fig. 1, a wheel alignment system is proposed, which includes the three-dimensional target 100, an image capturing device 200, and a processing system 300.

The processing system 300 is configured to filter out images of at least two of the target surfaces and determine the position of the wheel 400 based on the images of at least two of the target surfaces.
In other embodiments, with two of the target surfaces as a set of computing units, the processing system 300 is further configured to compute at least two sets of wheel alignment information from the images of the target elements 14 of at least two sets of the computing units, compare whether the at least two sets of wheel alignment information are consistent, and determine the position of the wheel 400 according to the wheel alignment information if the at least two sets of wheel alignment information are consistent.

For example, if the processing system 300 identifies and screens out images of the target elements 14 of at least two of the target surfaces from the images fed back by the image capturing device 200, the position of the wheel 400 can be determined from the images of the target elements 14 of the target surfaces. Further, before the position of the wheel 400 is determined, the two target surfaces are used as a set of calculation units, and comparison and calculation are performed according to wheel alignment information values calculated by the target surfaces of different sets, and if the wheel alignment information calculated according to each set of target surfaces is consistent or smaller than a preset error range, the wheel alignment information corresponds to a factory state, and the position of the wheel 400 can be determined based on the image of the target element 14 of the target surface. Alternatively, the position of the wheel 400 is determined from the average of the plurality of sets of wheel-positioning information calculated by the calculation unit.

For example, when the three-dimensional object 100 is fixed on a calibrated object, some of the object surfaces are occluded, but some of the object surfaces are highlighted, so that image data can be easily acquired, and through reasonable design, even if some of the object surfaces are occluded, the remaining object elements 14 on the visible object surfaces can still meet the requirements of acquisition and calculation. By collecting and calculating the target elements 14 of a plurality of target surfaces, the accuracy of positioning is improved.
