Abstract:
A method for automatic generation of calibration parameters for a surround view (SV) camera system is provided that includes capturing a video stream from each camera comprised in the SV camera system, wherein each video stream captures two calibration charts in a field of view of the camera generating the video stream; displaying the video streams in a calibration screen on a display device coupled to the SV camera system, wherein a bounding box is overlaid on each calibration chart, detecting feature points of the calibration charts, displaying the video streams in the calibration screen with the bounding box overlaid on each calibration chart and detected features points overlaid on respective calibration charts, computing calibration parameters based on the feature points and platform dependent parameters comprising data regarding size and placement of the calibration charts, and storing the calibration parameters in the SV camera system.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a computer-readable medium stores executable code, which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to: capture an image of a finder pattern using a camera; locate a predetermined point within the finder pattern; use the predetermined point to identify multiple boundary points on a perimeter associated with the finder pattern; identify fitted boundary lines based on the multiple boundary points; and locate feature points using the fitted boundary lines.
Abstract:
A method, apparatus and a system multi-camera image processing method. The method includes performing geometric alignment to produce a geometric output, performing photometric alignment to produce a photometric output and blending output, using data from the geometric alignment and the photometric alignment for performing synthesis function for at least one of blending and stitching images from the multi-cameras, and displaying an image from the synthesis function.
