Overview - libfastcal 1.3

The libfastcal library provides camera calibration data access in the fastest and simplest possible way. The library expects a standardized directories structure and a key/value-files for each camera that contains the calibration data values that clients want to access.

Presentation

The libfastcal library allows to perform queries on camera calibration data using methods for each data value. The library is built in order to decrease as much as possible the required operations for each value access using caches. The following page gives a demonstration of library usage :

• [Queries on calibration data](Queries example_v1.3)

The library always answer queries using standard units. As a remainder, distance are given in meters, angles in radians and image positions and sizes are provided in pixels.

Development

The libfastcal current release is 1.3 (v1.3). The master branch contains the state of the current beta version. Read the development logs for more information and documentation about the current state of the master branch.

$ git clone https://github.com/FoxelSA/libfastcal.git --recursive
$ cd libfastcal
$ git checkout v1.3

To build sub-modules and binaries with make, use the command :

$ make clean-all && make [OPENMP=false]

To rebuild the binaries without rebuilding sub-modules :

$ make clean && make build [OPENMP=false]

To rebuild sub-modules only, use the command :
