A new camera calibration target and its detection method are presented to improve the low accuracy of existing common checkerboard detection methods. The new calibration target uses gradient circle as its primitive element
and thus has easy to make
cheap and more accurate features compared with the checkerboard. It is easy and accurate to detect the new designed camera calibration target since the new calibration target contains more information than common checkerboard. A more accurate detection method is provided for the new calibration target. Experimental results and comparisons with the checkboard show that the new target with the detection method reduces the projection error by 20%.
