Kalibrierung von Multi-Kamera-Systemen - Kombinierte Schätzung von intrinsischem Abbildungsverhalten der einzelnen Kameras und deren relativer Lage zueinander ohne Erfordernis sich überlappender Sichtbereiche

This thesis presents a method for the combined intrinsic and extrinsic calibration of multi camera systems including cameras with fisheye lenses and cameras with non-overlapping fields of view. A temporal movement of a calibration target consisting of a fixed arrangement of multiple checkerboard patterns is captured and used as measurement. The process of camera calibration is formulated as a full bundle adjustment.
