Abstract
Abstract Standard camera and projector calibration techniques use a checkerboard that is manually shown at different poses to determine the calibration parameters. Furthermore, when image geometric correction must be performed on a three‐dimensional (3D) surface, such as projection mapping, the surface geometry must be determined. Camera calibration and 3D surface estimation can be costly, error prone, and time‐consuming when performed manually. To address this issue, we use an auto‐calibration technique that projects a series of Gray code structured light patterns. These patterns are captured by the camera to build a dense pixel correspondence between the projector and camera, which are used to calibrate the stereo system using an objective function, which embeds the calibration parameters together with the undistorted points. Minimization is carried out by a greedy algorithm that minimizes the cost at each iteration with respect to both calibration parameters and noisy image points. We test the auto‐calibration on different scenes and show that the results closely match a manual calibration of the system. We show that this technique can be used to build a 3D model of the scene, which in turn with the dense pixel correspondence can be used for geometric screen correction on any arbitrary surface.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
