- Abstract: We propose a generic event camera calibration framework using image
reconstruction. Instead of relying on blinking LED patterns or external
screens, we show that neural-network-based image reconstruction is well suited
for the task of intrinsic and extrinsic calibration of event cameras. The
advantage of our proposed approach is that we can use standard calibration
patterns that do not rely on active illumination. Furthermore, our approach
enables the possibility to perform extrinsic calibration between frame-based
and event-based sensors without additional complexity. Both simulation and
real-world experiments indicate that calibration through image reconstruction
is accurate under common distortion models and a wide variety of distortion
parameters

This paper proposes a method for estimating the complete set of calibration parameters from a single image of a planar speckle pattern covering the entire sensor.
The correspondence between image points and physical points on the calibration target is obtained using Digital Image Correlation.
At the end of the procedure, a dense and uniform model-free distortion map is obtained over the entire image.

NeuroLens is a neural lens model for distortion and vignetting that can be used for point projection and ray casting.
It can be used to perform pre-capture calibration using classical calibration targets, and can later be used to perform calibration or refinement during 3D reconstruction.
The model generalizes across many lens types and is trivial to integrate into existing 3D reconstruction and rendering systems.

In place of the traditional multi-image calibration process, we propose to infer the camera calibration parameters directly from a single image.
We train this network using automatically generated samples from a large-scale panorama dataset.
We conduct a large-scale human perception study where we ask participants to judge the realism of 3D objects composited with correct and biased camera calibration parameters.

Our camera model consists of a pinhole model, a fourth order radial distortion, and a generic noise model that can learn arbitrary non-linear camera distortions.

It calibrates directly from events captured during relative motion between camera and calibration pattern.
As demonstrated through our results, the obtained calibration method is highly convenient and reliably calibrates from data sequences spanning less than 10 seconds.

Pattern-based calibration techniques can be used to calibrate the intrinsics of the cameras individually.
Infrastucture-based calibration techniques are able to estimate the extrinsics using 3D maps pre-built via SLAM or Structure-from-Motion.
We propose to fully calibrate a multi-camera system from scratch using an infrastructure-based approach.

Instead of relying solely on detected feature points, we use an estimate of the internal parameters and the pose of the calibration object to implicitly render a non-photorealistic equivalent of the optical features.
