Abstract

The technology disclosed herein includes a method for determining the position of multiple cameras relative to each other. In one example, the method may include: receiving, by a processor, a first video recording of a first camera and a second video recording of a second camera; selecting a set of frames of the first video recording; determining a blurriness measure for multiple frames of the set; identifying feature points in multiple frames of the set; selecting a frame from the set of frames based on the blurriness measure and the identified feature points; and determining a position of a first camera relative to a second camera by comparing the selected frame with a frame of the second video recording.
