ASU Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This collection includes most of the ASU Theses and Dissertations from 2011 to present. ASU Theses and Dissertations are available in downloadable PDF format; however, a small percentage of items are under embargo. Information about the dissertations/theses includes degree information, committee members, an abstract, supporting data or media.
In addition to the electronic theses found in the ASU Digital Repository, ASU Theses and Dissertations can be found in the ASU Library Catalog.
Dissertations and Theses granted by Arizona State University are archived and made available through a joint effort of the ASU Graduate College and the ASU Libraries. For more information or questions about this collection contact or visit the Digital Repository ETD Library Guide or contact the ASU Graduate College at gradformat@asu.edu.

conventional cameras. The large field of view comes at a price of non-linear distortions
introduced near the boundaries of the images captured by such cameras. Despite this
drawback, they are being used increasingly in many applications of computer vision,
robotics, reconnaissance, astrophotography, surveillance and automotive applications.
The images captured from such cameras can be corrected for their distortion if the
cameras are calibrated and the distortion function is determined. Calibration also allows
fisheye cameras to be used in tasks involving metric scene measurement, metric
scene reconstruction and other simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithms.
This thesis presents a calibration toolbox (FisheyeCDC Toolbox) that implements a collection of some of the most widely used techniques for calibration of fisheye cameras under one package. This enables an inexperienced user to calibrate his/her own camera without the need for a theoretical understanding about computer vision and camera calibration. This thesis also explores some of the applications of calibration such as distortion correction and 3D reconstruction.
