The calibration code CamCal, version 7.0 determines the inner (f, x0, y0, sx, θ, k1, k2, p1, p2) and outer parameters
(X0, Y0, Z0, ω, φ, κ) of a pinhole camera model including a lens distortion compensation. The code is designed to
process images from planar calibration patterns.
The image recording program pulnix, version 2.0 enables to control the Pulnix TM6710 camera, the NI frame grabber PCI-1422 and the NI timer card PCI-6601
The three-dimensional path line reconstruction code Stereo2, version 9.3 processes the image pairs recorded with a two camera set-up
The calibration code startcal.m (MATLAB code) calculates the external parameters (X0, Y0, Z0, ω, φ, κ) of a stereo camera set-up
