Abstract

See full text

A device for the geometric calibration of a CCD camera, which includes a coherent light source and a synthetic hologram arranged relative to the coherent light source so that the hologram generates a real three-dimensional test structure f(x,y,z) around a focal plane of the CCD camera using coherent light. A method for geometric calibration of a CCD camera using a coherent light source and a synthetic hologram which includes the steps of calculating the synthetic hologram to provide a well-defined ideal three-dimensional test structure f(x,y,z) taking into account idealized camera optics of the CCD camera to be calibrated, illuminating the hologram using the coherent light source so that a real three-dimensional test structure f(x,y,z) is generated around a focal plane of the CCD camera, and evaluating in parallel a plurality of sensor pixels by determining a respective section plane through the real test structure f(x,y,z) from individual image information of each of the plural sensor pixels.
