Design and calibration of a multi view TOF sensor fusion system
This paper describes the design and calibration of a system that enables simultaneous recording of dynamic scenes with multiple high resolution video and low resolution Swissranger time of flight (TOF) depth cameras. The system shall serve as a testbed for the development of new algorithms for high quality multi view dynamic scene reconstruction and 3D video. The paper also provides a detailed analysis of random and systematic depth camera noise which is important for reliable fusion of video and depth data. Finally, the paper describes how to compensate systematic depth errors and calibrate all dynamic depth and video data into a common frame.
