ALIBRATION

You need three calibration shots to calibrate the central camera:

Left penalty area

Central circle

Right penalty area

Important
Keep the following in mind when you select the frame you will use:

A playfield is naturally curved, whereas the Epsio virtual field is made

up of straight lines.

A very wide shot is very likely to distort the image, which will intensify

the curved effect of the field.

Goal Area Calibration

The snapshots for the goal area of the main camera should show the following

elements:

the central line

the whole left/right penalty area (depending on the shot)

The shot should be as close as possible while containing the above-mentioned

elements.
