Something puzzle me between source code and tutorial
1.[u,v] in the tutorial is the point in the undistort image coordinates,but in source code is the point in the distort image.
2.the radial distort happens in converting the world coordinate to the camera coordinate or the camera coordinate to the image coordinate.In the source code [_x,_y,_w] is the world coordinate, which is nomalized into [x,y] as camera coordinate,that is true?
3.The R (rotation matrix) is assumed as identity,why?
