Abstract
Nowadays, augmented reality (AR) has become a key technology for surgical navigation. It is necessary to perform camera-sensor calibration to build AR between a camera and a sensor that tracks the camera. In order to perform camera-sensor calibration, it has been common method to move the camera in such a way as to solve an AX = XB type formula. However, in clinical environments, Endoscopes and microscopes are commonly used, and moving those cameras is very difficult due to their large weight and size when camera-sensor calibration is performed. Therefore, we propose a method to solve the camera-sensor matrix by expanding the AX = XB equation to the AX = BYC equation. Instead of moving the camera, we move the calibration pattern in the proposed method. Through the experiments, we compared the AX = BYC solution with the AX = XB solution in terms of the accuracy. As a result, we found the proposed method is more convenient and accurate than the conventional method.
