Abstract

A method and apparatus for jointly calibrating external parameters of multiple cameras. The method includes: determining an overlapped area of angles of view of cameras, and obtaining a 2D verification point set in an image of the overlapped area, the 2D verification point set including at least one verification point; performing external parameter calibration for each camera separately to obtain a current external parameter of the camera; calculating coordinates of a 3D point corresponding to each verification point in a world coordinate system using the current external parameter of each camera separately, and calculating a loss function based on the coordinates of the 3D point, the loss function being used to measure an overlay error of calibration of the cameras under the current external parameter; and performing joint calibration based on the loss function to obtain a target external parameter of each camera.
