Abstract

See full text

When calculating true inter-camera distance, offset images of a reference object such as a lane marker from at least two cameras coupled to an articulating vehicle are overlaid and shifted until the reference objects in each image are aligned. The distance by which the reference object images are shifted, as well as any rotation required to align the images, is used to calculate the actual distance between the cameras and to compensate for average yaw angle between the cameras when positioning the images for digital stitching to generate a composite “surround view” image.
