title: Toward dynamic recalibration and three-dimensional reconstruction in a structured light system.
abstract: We present a method for dynamic recalibration and 3D reconstruction via a structured light system. Assuming that the light planes cast from the digital light projector have been calibrated off-line, we show that the focal length, aspect ratio, and all motion parameters of the camera can be determined on-line. Then the 3D reconstruction can be carried out by either a traditional triangulation method or a more efficient transformation-based method. In the latter method, a single image is sufficient for the whole process of calibration and reconstruction. Thus a hand-held camera can be used. Computer simulation and real data experiments were carried out to validate the method.
