Multiple camera calibration chart

A method of using a chart to calibrate a camera system, wherein the camera system includes a first camera, a second camera, and a memory unit with a pre-stored ideal chart image, and wherein the chart comprises:

• a background;
• an array of dots contrasting the background, wherein the array of dots are arranged in rows and columns, wherein the array of dots comprise a first dot array of evenly spaced dots with a first dot density, and a second dot array of evenly spaced dots with a second dot density, wherein the first dot array fully occupies a first region, the second dot array fully occupies a second region, and wherein the second region is enclosed within the first region;
• a group of first markers in the first region, a group of second markers in the second region, and a third marker at the center of the chart, wherein each second marker is closer to the third marker than each first marker, and wherein each first marker is differentiated from each second marker;
• wherein the method includes:
• a) a step of using the first camera to take a first image of the chart, wherein the first image contains images of the first region, the first markers, and the array of dots, followed by aligning the images of the first makers to the pre-stored ideal chart image;
• b) a step of using the second camera to take a second image of the chart, wherein the second image contains images of the second region, the second markers, and the array of dots, followed by aligning the images of the second makers to the pre-stored ideal chart image;
• and
• c) matching the array of dots of the first image and the second image to the pre-stored ideal chart image.
