High accuracy linear method for axis measurement

Abstract. The attitude parameter is an important state parameter for a long axisymmetric target. The plane intersection (PI) method is a commonly used method for attitude estimation. However, this method only uses planes’ information in the object space under a multiple camera system (more than two cameras simultaneously observing a target). We propose two methods to address the aforementioned issue. One method involves minimizing the square of the object-space angle residual (OAR) and the other method involves minimizing the square of the image-space angle residual (IAR). The linear optimization method is used for the above minimizing problems. The simulation results demonstrate that the IAR method has higher accuracy than the PI and OAR methods under multiple and dual camera systems because it incorporates information of a pair of corresponding image points. Furthermore, our experiments have shown that the linear method is generally faster, and it has an equivalent accuracy compared to the iterative method.
