Abstract
To correct aberrations in the image plane of a camera while modifying selected, modifiable camera settings that influence aberrations quickly and simply, a plurality of features with different known feature positions is provided in space. For each selected, modifiable camera setting influencing the aberration, at least two defined setting specifications are provided for modifying respective camera settings. For each setting specification, the camera captures the plurality of features. The camera determines positions of features in the image plane. Via a known mathematical method, a connection between different known feature positions in space and corresponding image positions in the image plane of the camera is determined. For each of the setting specifications of the selected modifiable camera settings, correction parameters of at least one mathematical correction model are determined for correcting the aberration. The at least one correction model is stored in the camera together with the determined correction parameters.
