FishEyeCamera

class machinevisiontoolbox.Camera.FishEyeCamera(k=None, projection='equiangular', **kwargs)

Create fisheye camera projection model

Parameters:

• k (float, optional) – scale factor

• projection (str, optional) – projection model: 'equiangular' [default], 'sine', 'equisolid' or 'stereographic'

• kwargs – arguments passed to CameraBase constructor

A fisheye camera contains a wide angle lens, and the angle of the incoming ray is mapped to a radius with respect to the principal point. The mapping from elevation angle \(\theta\) to image plane radius is given by:

Projection	\(r(\theta)\)
equiangular	\(r = k \theta\)
sine	\(r = k \sin \theta\)
equisolid	\(r = k \sin \frac{\theta}{2}\)
stereographic	\(r = k \tan \frac{\theta}{2}\)

Note:

• If K is not specified it is computed such that the circular

  imaging region maximally fills the square image plane.

• This camera model assumes central projection, that is, the focal point

  is at z=0 and the image plane is at z=f. The image is not inverted.

__init__(k=None, projection='equiangular', **kwargs)

Abstract camera base class

Parameters:

• name (str, optional) – camera instance name, defaults to None

• camtype (str, optional) – camera projection type, defaults to ‘central’

• rho (scalar or array_like(2), optional) – pixel size, defaults to 1

• imagesize (int or array_like(2), optional) – image dimension in pixels, defaults to None

• sensorsize (array_like(2), optional) – image sensor size, defaults to None

• pp (array_like(2), optional) – principal point position, defaults to None

• noise (float, optional) – standard deviation of image plane projection noise, defaults to None

• pose (SE3, optional) – camera pose, defaults to None

• limits (array_like(4), optional) – bounds of virtual image plane [umin, umax, vmin, vmax], defaults to None

• labels (2-tuple of str, optional) – axis labels for virtual image plane, defaults to ('u', 'v')

• seed (int, optional) – random number seed for projection noise, defaults to None

Raises:

• TypeError – name must be a string

• TypeError – camtype must be a string

• ValueError – rho must be a 1- or 2-element vector

This abstract class is the base for all camera projection model classes. All baseclass constructors support these options.
