Publisher: In controlled industrial environments, laser triangulation is an effective technique for 3D reconstruction, which is increasingly being used for quality inspection and metrology. In this paper, we propose a method for calibrating a dual laser triangulation system - consisting of a camera, two line lasers, and a linear motion platform designed to perform completeness inspection tasks on an assembly line. Calibration of such a system involves the recovery of two sets of parameters - the plane parameters of the two line lasers, and the translational direction of the linear motion platform. First, we address these two calibration problems separately. While many solutions have been given for the former problem, the latter problem has been largely ignored. Next, we highlight an issue specific to the use of multiple lasers - that small errors in the calibration parameters can lead to misalignment between the reconstructed point clouds of the different lasers. We present two different procedures that can eliminate such misalignments by imposing constraints between the two sets of calibration parameters. Our calibration method requires only the use of planar checkerboard patterns, which can be produced easily and inexpensively. © 2012 IEEE.
