  • Calibrating texture cameras using features extracted from depth images
    Patent number: 10540784
    Abstract: An example apparatus for calibrating texture cameras includes an image receiver to receive a depth image from a depth camera and a color image from a texture camera. The apparatus also includes a feature extractor to extract features from the depth image and the color image. The apparatus further includes a feature tester to detect that the extracted features from the depth image and the color image exceed a quality threshold. The apparatus includes a misalignment detector to detect a misalignment between the extracted features from depth image and the extracted features from color image exceeds a misalignment threshold. The apparatus also further includes a calibrator to modify calibration parameters for the texture camera to reduce the detected misalignment between the extracted features from the depth image and the extracted features from the color image below a misalignment threshold.
