METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING CAMERA CALIBRATION FOR VEHICLES

摘要

The precise advance calibration process cannot be always performed in a general vehicle, and the angular misalignment cannot also be maintained to be stable for a long time due to shakes of the vehicle, etc. Therefore, the automatic calibration is required to be performed at regular time intervals or when an event such as a shock, etc. occurs. According to an embodiment of the present invention, provided is the technology of automatically, in-situ, calibrating the angular misalignment of the mounted cameras by using lots of stopped objects in the surrounding of the road while the vehicle is driven. Specifically, provided is a method for automatically calibrating the angular misalignment of the mounted cameras, which is required to precisely convert, to a vehicle coordinate system, real-time safe driving subsidiary information in the surrounding of the vehicle, such as the vehicle, a pedestrian, and a lane, etc. obtained by a single or multiple cameras mounted in the vehicle.
