Abstract

A system is disclosed for providing extrinsic calibration of a camera to a relative working environment of a programmable motion device that includes an end-effector. The system includes a fiducial located at or near the end-effector, at least one camera system for viewing the fiducial as the programmable motion device moves in at least three degrees of freedom, and for capturing a plurality of images containing the fiducial, and a calibration system for analyzing the plurality of images to determine a fiducial location with respect to the camera to permit calibration of the camera with the programmable motion device.
