Lollypop: Camera-to-Motion-Capture Calibration Verification with a Reference Target
Abstract
Camera-to-motion-capture (mocap) calibration is essential for using mocap as ground truth in robotics, AR/VR, and other computer vision tasks. However, the calibration can drift after deployment, while calibration residuals and visual inspection provide limited independent verification. We present Lollypop, a fiducial-mocap reference target for independent calibration verification. The target couples an ArUco fiducial with a mocap marker constellation so the visual center and tracked centroid represent the same physical point. Given a candidate calibration, verification projects the mocap point into the image and measures its disagreement with the detected fiducial center. Experiments show sub-pixel nominal error, sensitivity to controlled extrinsic perturbations, and increasing error during an illustrative mixed-handling sequence.
