  • Patent number: 11812153
    Abstract: Systems and methods for fisheye camera calibration and BEV image generation in a simulation environment. This fisheye camera calibration enables the extrinsic and intrinsic parameters of the fisheye camera to be computed in the simulation environment, where data is readily available, collectible, and manipulatable. Given a surround vision system, with multiple fisheye cameras disposed around a vehicle, and these extrinsic and intrinsic parameters, undistorted and BEV images of the surroundings of the vehicle can be generated in the simulated environment, for simulated fisheye camera testing and validation, which may then be extrapolated to real-world fisheye camera testing and validation, as appropriate. Because the simulation tool can be used to create and readily manipulate the simulated fisheye camera, the vehicle, its surroundings, obstacles, targets, markers, and the like, the entire calibration and image generation process is streamlined and may be automated.
