Abstract
A calibration method and an image capture apparatus including a calibrator are provided. The image capture apparatus includes a window glass, an image sensor under the window glass, and a calibrator. The calibrator is disposed above the image sensor and includes a first portion and a second portion. During the calibration of the image apparatus, the image sensor scans the first portion to generate a first calibration data and scans the second portion to generate a second calibration data. Then the image sensor employs the first calibration data and the second calibration data to derive the third calibration data, which is used for the image sensor to calibrate the scan results.
