Summary :

A new mathematical formalism is proposed for constructing elements of camera calibration that measure the focal length and the orientation of the camera: the focal length and the camera orientation are computed by detecting, on the image plane, the vanishing points of two sets of lines that are mutually orthogonal in the scene; the distance of the scene coordinate origin from the camera is determined by location, on the image plane, a point whose scene coordinates are known. We show that the separation of the calibration process into atomic modules enables us to not only predict theoretically optimal estimates but also estimate their reliability.
