Abstract

For precise measurement in long narrow pipelines with a moving machine vision sensor, the measuring data at different sections need to be calibrated in a global coordinate system. The final measuring precision is greatly affected by this global calibration approach. To realize a precise calibration in a cramped space, we propose a system composed of lasers, a camera and a cooperative plane. Four lasers are utilized rather than 1-D laser rangefinders or structured light sensors, thus the device attached to the vision sensor can be very small. Experiments show that our four-laser system has a satisfactory accuracy.
