✨ SIGHTCALIBRATOR(1) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the sighcalibrator page, section 1 of the manual πŸ’– yes it's a real Unix manpage and yes it's about cameras, we're doing this


🌸 NAME 🌸

sighcalibrator β€” a camera calibration application. that's it, that's the name, short and iconic πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

sighcalibrator [OPTIONS]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so sighcalibrator is a user-friendly application for calibrating mono and stereo cameras, no cap. it's giving "I just want my cameras to behave" energy and honestly? relatable.

it can take in images, video files, or any supported camera device as input 🌈

it detects the presence of a checkerboard in images (yes the little black-and-white squares, the moment it spots one it's over for everyone) and the parameters of that checkerboard can be customized πŸŽ€

then, like, individual images can be marked to be used in the computation of the calibration β€” you're literally the main character choosing which pics make the cut πŸ‘‘

and last but absolutely not least, the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters can be exported in OpenCV format, Yaml or XML ⭐

periodt. that's the whole vibe.
