Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and methods for calibrating a volumetric estimation device for determining dimensions of an object. Described is a first laser source and a second laser source, each projecting at least two laser lines onto an object from a point of laser projection, to form a rectangular calibration target having crossline locations on at least a portion of the object and a camera for capturing an image of the rectangular calibration target projected onto the object, the camera having a camera image plane and a camera image plane centre point. The camera captures the laser projected crosslines as camera images. Means for utilising locations of laser projected crosslines in camera images, means for determining a deviation angle of the laser projection from a direction perpendicular to the camera image plane and the distance between the camera image plane centre point and laser source can allow for laser calibration.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 6  wherein the two or more images acquired by a camera of the projected laser crosslines, fall on objects at known distances away from the camera, and the method further comprises determining, based on the locations of crosslines from the two or more images, the deviation angles from a direction perpendicular to the camera image plane and the distances between the camera image place centre and laser sources.
