SYNOPSIS

$ mrcal-calibrate-cameras --focal 2000
      --outdir /tmp --object-spacing 0.01
      --object-width-n 10 '/tmp/left*.png' '/tmp/right*.png'

... lots of output as the solve runs ...
Wrote /tmp/camera0-0.cameramodel
Wrote /tmp/camera0-1.cameramodel

And now we have a calibration!

SUMMARY

mrcal is a generic toolkit built to solve the calibration and SFM-like problems we encounter at NASA/JPL. Functionality related to these problems is exposed as a set of C and Python libraries and some commandline tools.

DESCRIPTION

Extensive documentation is available at https://mrcal.secretsauce.net/

These pip wheels are available for Linux (amd64) and macos (arm64). Pip is a giant hack. These were a huge pain to build, even with Claude's help. They're massively inefficient, and probably are missing things.

Everything mrcal does should be there. Plotting should be there (gnuplot is shipped, with x11 and qt terminals for osx); it should just work. Tell me if it doesn't. pyfltk and the GL image widget are available (mrcal-stereo should work). vnlog is available. mrgingham is not available: building opencv was an endless timesuck; the pip-building tools suck.

INSTALLATION

These pip wheels should work. If at all possible, do not use these, and install from the Debian packages instead, as noted on the "Building or installing" page. If you find issues with any of it, please let me know.
