Abstract | If captured images are processed to acquire some information of the world (e.g. shapes, objects), then it is very important to normalize them. There are many attributes, which should be corrected: the optical distortions of the camera lenses, the pixel error of the CCD chip, wrong brightness etc. Normal webcams and the camera of the AIBO mobile robot have different architectures and they need alternative solutions to capture the images and to normalize them. The myLibrary library developed by the author of this paper integrates various sources under Linux to solve these problems. The goal of this study is to summarize the achieved results and to discuss the ways of the further work. |
