A Planar-Dimensions Machine Vision Measurement Method Based on Lens Distortion Correction by Qiucheng Sun, Yueqian Hou, Qingchang Tan, Guannan Li

“…The method can be divided into three steps: firstly, the feature points, only in the small central region of the image, are used to get a more accurate perspective projection model; secondly, rather than defining a uniform model, the smoothing spline function is used to describe the lens distortion in the measurement region of image, and two correction functions can be obtained by fitting two deviation surfaces; finally, a measurement method for planar dimensions is proposed, in which accurate magnification factor of imaging system can be obtained by using the correction functions. …”
