Abstract

This paper introduces the vanishing points to self-calibrate a structured light system. The vanishing points permit to automatically remove the projector’s keystone effect and then to self-calibrate the projector–camera system. The calibration object is a simple planar surface such as a white paper. Complex patterns and 3D calibrated objects are not required any more. The technique is compared to classic calibration and validated with experimental results.
