extrinsics

  • where is the camera in the world?
  • 6 degrees of freedom
    • (x,y,z) for location
    • and (a,b,c) for orientation localization estimates extrinsics
  • pinhole camera projection center defines camera system

intrinsics

  • camera calibration & pose estimation
  • how to map a 3d world point onto a 2d image
  • described by 4-5 parameters
    • C = camera constant, distance of image plane from camera center
    • m = scale difference in x-y
    • fx,fy = focal length
    • (x,y) principle point / optical center = pixel in the image through which the optical axis of the camera passes?
      • describes where the point sits in the image
