Refraction occurs at the borders between different media on the way of the light and introduces non-linear distortions, that are dependent on the imaged scene. In this paper, concepts will be proposed for the calibration of a stereo camera system including a set of additional refractive parameters, for underwater stereo 3D-reconstruction and for evaluation of the computations.enunderwater imagingcamera calibration3D reconstructionstereo camera systemsconference paper
