Abstract
Example implementations include a method, apparatus and computer-readable medium for estimating a real world height in an image, comprising obtaining two images of an object, with known height, wherein each image depicts the object at a different position that is estimated using a homography matrix. The homography matrix transforms an image plane associated with the image to a real world plane. The implementations include generating a first vector that intersects with the object and points to a real world ground plane using the first image and a second vector that intersects with the same point on the object and points to the real world ground plane using the second image. Additionally, the implementations further include calibrating the camera by determining a height of the center of a camera lens of the camera using an intersection of the first vector and the second vector.
