This chapter describes three basic components of a computer vision system. The geometry and photometry of the used cameras needs to be understood (to some degree). For modelling the projective mapping of the 3D world into images and for the steps involved in camera calibration, we have to deal with several coordinate systems. By calibration we map recorded images into normalized (e.g. geometrically rectified) representations, thus simplifying subsequent vision procedures.
