Abstract
Bundle adjustment systems and methods are disclosed for determining a solution for orientation information associated with a plurality of image frames captured by at least one rolling shutter camera in a rotating camera lens type imaging system having a camera lens that moves across track in an oscillating manner and captures image frames as the camera lens moves. The system may define a plurality of pose time domain polynomials for the rolling shutter camera, the pose time domain polynomials together defining pose information for the rolling shutter camera for scanlines of an image frame captured by the rolling shutter camera, and each pose time domain polynomial including a plurality of parameters to be adjusted in a bundle adjustment process and carry out a bundle adjustment process using the pose time domain polynomials to produce a bundle adjustment solution wherein the pose time domain polynomial parameters are adjusted to reduce error.
