Hello guys,

for my project I am trying to calibrate my depth camera with my robot-arm (hand-eye calibration). Therefore, I measured 8 corners of the cheassboard and got 8 pixel vectors and their corresponding robot 3D coordinates (using the gripper to point exactly at the corner). Then, I tried to calculate the transformation matrix. But the result is way off. Where's the mistake? Thank you very much!

Edit: Added the camera matrix

img_pts = np.array(((237., 325.),

p = np.array((237., 325., 0.), dtype=np.float32)

p_new = np.array([p[0], p[1], p[2], 1])

objectPoint = np.dot(p_new, T_gripper_cam)[:3]

print(objectPoint)
# should be (-437., -491., -259.)
# --> actual = [  33.57 -395.62  -64.46]

------------------------------------- Edit ---------------------------------------------------------- I think I might be on to something. According to this: Stackoverflow

I have to calculate the scaling factor. So i tried to do this in python:

uv = np.array(([237.], [325.], [1.]), dtype=np.float32)
rotInv = np.linalg.inv(rmtx)
camMatInv = np.linalg.inv(camera_matrix)
leftSideMat = np.dot(rotInv, np.dot(camMatInv, uv))
rightSideMat = np.dot(rotInv, tvec)

s = (295 + leftSideMat[2:] / rightSideMat[2:])
temp = (s * np.dot(camMatInv, uv))
tempSub = np.array(temp - tvec)

print(np.dot(rotInv, tempSub))
# should be (-437., -491., -259.)
# --> actual = [  437.2 -501.3  -266.2]

Looks like I am pretty close. But its still way off in the Y direction. Is this the correct approach? Thank you!

Thank you first of all! I think that's what i did in: p_new = np.array([p[0], p[1], p[2], 1]) p should just be a pixe
