'''Masters Degree Thesis Title:''' Calibration of Linear Light Sources in Factory Automation Scenario.
 +
 +
'''Masters Degree Thesis Summary:''' A method was developed to calibrate the origin, position and angle of a rigidly attached linear light source in a factory automation setting by utilising the factory line sensing camera itself. The results are used for virtual image reconstruction processes. The process involves first calibrating the camera to remove noise and then using noise free images to compute the camera calibration values.
