Abstract
This Letter presents a novel, to the best of our knowledge, method to calibrate multi-focus microscopic structured-light three-dimensional (3D) imaging systems with an electrically adjustable camera focal length. We first leverage the conventional method to calibrate the system with a reference focal length f0. Then we calibrate the system with other discrete focal lengths fi by determining virtual features on a reconstructed white plane using f0. Finally, we fit the polynomial function model using the discrete calibration results for fi. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method can calibrate the system consistently and accurately.
