Abstract
A laser three-dimensional (3D) projection system is an auxiliary system in intelligent manufacturing. It works with a positioning system in practical applications. This study proposes a calibration method for laser 3D projection systems based on binocular vision. The significance of the binocular vision positioning function for the calibration process was analyzed. Two calibration methods for laser 3D projection systems based on the binocular vision positioning function were proposed. One method involves simplified calculation models and another used data to solve the conversion relationship. The experimental calibration of the projection system was performed using data to directly solve the conversion relationship. The experiment demonstrated the simplicity of the proposed calibration method. The calculation time was less under the 3D laser projection system based on binocular vision. Moreover, the mean calibration error was 0.38 mm at a working distance of 1.8-2.2 m.
