Claim One:
1. A method of calibrating multiple vehicle-based image capture devices of a vehicle, the method comprising the steps of: capturing an image by at least one image capture device; identifying, by a processor, a reference object in the captured image, the reference object having known world coordinates, the identification of the reference object is used to correlate coordinates of the image capture device to world coordinates; determining a location and orientation of the vehicle, by the processor, the location and orientation of the vehicle used to correlate coordinates of the vehicle to world coordinates; correlating, by the processor, the vehicle coordinates to the image capture device coordinates as a function of the relationship between the world coordinates and the vehicle coordinates and the relationship between the world coordinates and the image capture device coordinates; calibrating the at least one image capture device utilizing intrinsic parameters and extrinsic parameters of the at least one image capture device as a function of the relationship of the vehicle coordinates to the image capture device coordinates.
