Advanced driver-assistance systems need a camera calibration algorithm for various vision applications including surround-view monitoring (SVM) and lane departure warning (LDW). Although cameras mounted on a vehicle are calibrated in the manufacturing process, their orientation angles are subject to tilting because of continuing vibration and external impact. To solve the problem, this paper presents an online calibration algorithm for camera orientation estimation using motion vectors and three-dimensional geometry. The proposed algorithm consists of three steps: i) driving direction estimation by calculating an intersection of motion vectors, ii) camera orientation estimation based on 3-line random sample consensus (RANSAC) using the estimated intersection, and iii) final orientation decision using extended Kalman filter from the result of each frame. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm stably estimates camera orientation angles from motion vectors and lines under the parallelism and orthogonality assumptions.
