Abstract
A method for calibrating cameras includes moving a point of light on a first flat surface. A first and a second camera are capable of generating a first frame and a second frame of the point of light respectively. The respective points of light are in a first and a second field of view of the first and second camera. The method includes determining a relative position between the first camera and the second camera based in part on the first frame and the second frame.
