5.6 Robot > Calibrations

Sensors typically require calibrations. This page collects the calibrations done, synchs them with the Duckietown backend (when data transfer permissions are enabled), and allows for restoration in case of re-flashing.

Currently, supported calibrations include:

• Camera:

  • Intrinsic: backup of intrinsic camera calibration (required, e.g., to undistort images)

    • TODO Add link to calibration procedure for drone
      

  • Extrinsic: backup of extrinsic camera calibration (required to map the position of the camera with respect to the robot’s body frame).

    • TODO Add link to calibration procedure for drone
      

• IMU:

  • This calibration is the most important for the the DD21 and will become green after performing the first calibration through the Robot > Mission Control page. This procedure provides the reference plane for the internal high-frequency control of roll and pitch.
