Radar Camera Calibration API

PreviousGlobal OptimiserNextTarget Camera-Vehicle Calibration API

Last updated 7 months ago

Introduction

The API requires the client to upload the images and configuration for camera setup in a zip file (.zip extension) in the format defined below. The contents of the zip file are called a dataset.

  1. The client makes an Upload and calibrate API call, which uploads their files and runs the calibration algorithm on the images and lidar files for the given configuration.

  2. The calibration process is completed without errors if the Upload and calibrate API call response contains dataset_id, calibration_algorithm_version, extrinsic_parameters, and error_stats.

  3. The client can call the Get Extrinsic Parameters API using the dataset_id obtained from the Upload and calibrate API. This API responds with dataset_id, calibration_algorithm_version, extrinsic_parameters, and error_stats.

Folder Structure

We require the images from the camera for a given calibration.

  1. Place the images captured from the camera in a folder.

  2. config.json contains configuration details of the calibration (intrinsic parameters, calibration name, etc.)

Note: Folder structure is optional. Users can place all files in the main directory and zip it.

Note

  1. The names of the folders and the images shown here are for demonstration purposes. Users should avoid using space in the folder, lidar, and image filenames.

  2. The name of the JSON file should be config.json (case sensitive)

double

These are the values for distortion coefficients of the camera lens.Note:

  1. If the lens_model is pinhole we require k1, k2, k3, p1, and p2 values (no need of k4)

  2. If the lens_model is fisheye then we require the k1, k2, k3, and k4 values. (p1 and p2 are not needed)

  3. These parameters are not required if distortion_enabled is false.

file_data

List of Objects

It stores the file_name and position

file_name

String

Name of the image file (a file with this name should be available in the zip file)

position

Object

Contains the x, y and z coordinates of the radar-target.

dataset_id

A unique value to identify the dataset. dataset_id can be used to retrieve the extrinsic parameters.

calibration_algorithm_version

The version of the algorithm used to calculate extrinsic parameters. This value can be used to map extrinsic parameters to a specific algorithm version.

extrinsic_parameters

roll, pitch, and yaw are given in degrees and px, py, and pz are given in meters.

error_stats

translation_error: The translational error rate gives the mean distance error between points in 3D (it is for individual files)

mean_translation_error: Mean of the translation_error of all the files.

reprojection_error: The reprojection error rate gives the mean distance error between points in 2D (it is for individual files) mean_reprojection_error: Mean of the reprojection_error of all the files

Get Extrinsic Parameters

This GET api call returns dataset_id, calibration_algorithm_version, extrinsic parameters, and error_stats to the user as the response.

Before invoking the APIs, the client must obtain the clientId and auth token from Deepen AI. If you are a calibration admin, you can create different Access Tokens using the UI and use those instead. clientId is part of the path parameters in most API calls, and the auth token should be prefixed with “Bearer“ and passed to the ‘Authorization’ header in all API requests. How to get Access Tokens can be found on the following link:
