Method and system for measuring a relative position and orientation of
range cameras using a movement of an object within a scene. In general,
the method and system determine the relative pose between two cameras by
measuring a path the movement of the object makes within a scene and
calculating transformation parameters based on these measurements. These
transformation parameters are used to determine the relative position of
each camera with respect to a base camera. The system and method include
other novel features, such as a data synchronization feature that uses a
time offset between cameras to obtain the transformation parameters, and
a technique that improves the robustness and accuracy of solving for the
transformation parameters, and an interpolation process that interpolates
between sampled points if there is no data at a particular instant in
time.
