Abstract: The convergent placement of binocular cameras can lead to defocus blur and perspective deformation of the marked points, introducing positioning deviations and calibration errors, especially problematic in large field of view (FOV) environments and consequently affecting measurement accuracy. To address this problem, a large FOV convergence binocular stereo vision calibration method based on the weighting of mark points positioning deviation degree is proposed. Firstly, the defocus blur and perspective deformation of the mark points are calculated by using the position of the target in the camera coordinate system. Secondly, the corresponding weight is set according to the positioning deviation degree of mark points. Finally, the mark points weight coefficients are added to the objective function to guide the optimization of calibration parameters. Experimental results show that the root-mean-square error and standard deviation of distance measurement can reach 0.809 and 0.290, respectively, when the observation value is 505 mm. This method not only effectively improves the calibration accuracy of large field convergence binocular stereo vision, but also exhibits good stability.
