3-1 Nonlinear Refinement of Camera Parameters using an Endoscopic Surgery Robot (2009)

Jochen Schmidt, Florian Vogt, Heinrich Niemann

We present an approach for nonlinear optimization of the parameters of an endoscopic camera mounted on a surgery robot. The goal is to generate a depth map for each image in order to enhance the...
