Camera Calibration and the Pinhole Model

mediumnumerical

General

A robot uses a calibrated pinhole camera with focal length f=800f = 800 pixels (i.e., fx=fy=800f_x = f_y = 800). A planar object lies on a table directly in front of and parallel to the image plane, at a depth of Z=4.0Z = 4.0 meters from the camera's optical center. The object has a true physical width of 0.500.50 meters. Assuming no lens distortion and that the object is centered, how wide (in pixels) will the object appear in the captured image?
