METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CALIBRATING VEHICULAR CAMERAS

A method for calibrating a vehicular camera includes providing at least a front or rear camera and a side camera with overlapping fields of view, and calibrating the front or rear camera, capturing a calibrated frame of image data with the front or rear camera, and capturing a sideward frame of image data with a side camera. At least one feature is determined present in the overlapping region of the calibrated frame, and pixel positions of the determined feature are predicted for the side camera. Misalignment of the side camera is determined based on a comparison of the predicted pixel positions of the determined feature to the pixel positions of the determined feature in the sideward frame of image data captured by the side camera. Processing of image data captured by the side camera is adjusted to accommodate the determined misalignment.
