Enum for extrinsic calibration model.
Calibrating a laser triangulation system extrinsically involves transforming an intrinsically calibrated point cloud to a world coordinate system. This transformation includes not only rotation and translation but also correction of the laser plane's inclination about the x and z axes, and scaling. The scaling in the x and z directions depends on the laser plane's inclination. If the scaling in the y direction (known as the encoder step) is unknown, it can be estimated by enabling it via the function #SetEstimateEncoderStep, too. The transformation parameters can be represented by three 3D matrices. Multiplying them results in an affine 3D matrix:
and where
m11,...m33: individual elements of the affine matrix.
Syx and Syz: shear parameters that correct an inclined laser plane.
Scale.X,Y,Z: scaling factors.
R: 3D rotation matrix calculated from the RotationAngles.
There are two ways to estimate the transformation: You may simply estimate the 9 individual elements of the affine matrix m11,..., m33 or estimate the parameters for rotation, scale and shear. The advantage of estimating the single elements is that the system of equations is linear and easy to solve. Whereas estimating the parameters lead to a non-linear system of equations and might not yield a reasonable result in very rare cases. However, using the non-linear system of equations models the errors more accurately and is thus recommended.
The model for the extrinsic calibration can be set in the calibration configuration object via function #SetExtrinsicCalibrationModel or be specified directly like in function cvb.foundation.metric.calculate_correction_of_laser_plane_inclination.
