• Abstract: Currently, there are no learning-free or neural techniques for real-time recalibration of infrared multi-camera systems. In this paper, we address the challenge of real-time, highly-accurate calibration of multi-camera infrared systems, a critical task for time-sensitive applications. Unlike traditional calibration techniques that lack adaptability and struggle with on-the-fly recalibrations, we propose a neural network-based method capable of dynamic real-time calibration. The proposed method integrates a differentiable projection model that directly correlates 3D geometries with their 2D image projections and facilitates the direct optimization of both intrinsic and extrinsic camera parameters. Key to our approach is the dynamic camera pose synthesis with perturbations in camera parameters, emulating realistic operational challenges to enhance model robustness. We introduce two model variants: one designed for multi-camera systems with onboard processing of 2D points, utilizing the direct 2D projections of 3D fiducials, and another for image-based systems, employing color-coded projected points for implicitly establishing correspondence. Through rigorous experimentation, we demonstrate our method is more accurate than traditional calibration techniques with or without perturbations while also being real-time, marking a significant leap in the field of real-time multi-camera system calibration.

  This paper introduces a novel camera calibration method using a collimator system. Based on the optical geometry of the collimator system, we prove that the relative motion between the target and camera conforms to the spherical motion model. A closed-form solver for multiple views and a minimal solver for two views are proposed for camera calibration.

• Stereo camera system calibration: the need of two sets of parameters [0.0]
  The reconstruction of a scene via a stereo-camera system is a two-steps process. At first images from different cameras are matched to identify the set of point-to-point correspondences that then will actually be reconstructed in the real world. We propose to calibrate the system twice to estimate two different sets of parameters.
