Abstract
An imaging system may include a housing and an aperture in the housing. The imaging system may further include sensors adjacent the aperture. The sensors may be responsive to an image signal received through the aperture. The imaging system may further include a controller in communication with storage and the sensors. The storage may include calibration data. In addition, the controller may transform the calibration data into a rectified image through use of the image signal.
Claims20
An imaging system comprising:
- a housing including an aperture;
- sensors adjacent the aperture, said sensors responsive to an image signal received through the aperture;
- a controller in communication with said sensors, said controller to generate calibration data by a calibration target walked through a field of view that includes a field of effect;
- and
- storage in communication with said controller, said storage including the calibration data;
- said controller transforming images of the calibration data into a rectified image through use of the image signal.
A method for rectifying an image, the method comprising:
- generating calibration data for an imaging system by a calibration target walked through a field of view that includes a field of effect;
- receiving an image signal with the imaging system;
- and
- transforming images of the calibration data into a rectified image through use of the image signal.
A computer program product embodied in a tangible non-transitory media comprising:
- computer readable program codes coupled to the tangible non-transitory media for rectifying an image, the computer readable program codes configured to cause the program to:
- generate calibration data for an imaging system by a calibration target walked through a field of view that includes a field of effect;
- receive an image signal with the imaging system;
- and
- transform images of the calibration data into a rectified image through use of the image signal.
