Position Estimation of Single Camera Visual System Based on Total Least Squares Algorithm

The position estimation of optical feature points of visual system is the focus factor of the precision of system. For this problem , to present the Total Least Squares Algorithm . Firstly , set up the measurement coordinate system and 3D model between optical feature points, image points and the position of camera according to the position relation ; Second , build the matrix equations between optical feature points and image points ; Then apply in the total least squares to have an optimization calculation ; Finally apply in the coordinate measuring machining to have a simulation comparison experiment , the results indicate that the standard tolerance of attitude coordinate calculated by total least squares is 0.043mm, it validates the effectiveness; Compare with the traditional method based on three points perspective theory, measure the standard gauge of 500mm; the standard tolerance of traditional measurement system is 0.0641mm, the standard tolerance of Total Least Squares Algorithm is 0.0593mm; The experiment proves the Total Least Squares Algorithm is effective and has high precision.

Data Normalization of Single Camera Visual Measurement Network System

With the development of visual measurement system , the visual measurement system of single camera which applied in the imaging theory of optical feature points , it has been widespread used in the modern production . Due to the limit of the environment in scene , the visual measurement system of single camera could not measure the shield between the measured objects each other . Focus on this problem , present a kind of the the knowledge of measurement network based on the visual measurement of single camera , set up the measurement network system via the multi-control points . Measure the optical feature points in every network control point via the visual measurement system of single camera; Normalize the measured coordinates into the same world coordinate system , then get the global data , and achieve the overall measurement ; Apply in the three coordinate measuring machine(CMM) to have the simulation experiment , the result indicates that the maximum absolute tolerance between the normalization coordinates via the center of point set and the ones measured by CMM directly is 0.058mm ; But the one between the coordinate repeatedly measured at the position of one network control point is 0.066mm ; So the data normalization has the advantage of more high precision .
