Globally Optimal Hand-Eye Calibration

Abstract

This paper introduces simultaneous globally optimal hand-eye self-calibration in both its rotational and translational components. The main contributions are new feasibility tests to integrate the hand-eye calibration problem into a branch-and-bound parameter space search. The presented method constitutes the first guaranteed globally optimal estimator for simultaneous optimization of both components with respect to a cost function based on reprojection errors. The system is evaluated in both synthetic and real world scenarios. The employed benchmark dataset is published online <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1</sup> to create a common point of reference for evaluation of hand-eye self-calibration algorithms.
