Does the curved checkerboard pattern affects the stereo calibration?

I printed the checkerboard pattern with the high resolution, but the wooden frame that I have used to attach my calibration pattern has curved (not planner) shape. Is it affect the stereo calibration?

Yes (and distorsion and matrix calibration are wrong) if you use opencv function :

see Zhengyou Zhang. A flexible new technique for camera calibration. Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, IEEE Transactions on, 22(11):1330–1334, 2000. Abstract ->

We propose a flexible new technique to easily calibrate a camera. It is well suited for use without specialized knowledge of 3D geometry or computer vision. The technique only requires the camera to observe a planar pattern shown at a few (at least two) different orientations.

Thank you for the quick reply. With this arrangement, I am getting RMS value of 1.1 pixels. Will it lead to a wrong calculation of depth?

With a flat checkboard when rms is less than 0.4, I stop calibration. Use a flat grid. If you really need a good calibration you can buy a grid using aludibond (4 mm thickness) : Example
