# BACS: Bundle Adjustment For Camera Systems

This is a Python implementation of BACS, a bundle adjustment for camera systems with points at infinity. It was originally written in Matlab and published by Johannes Schneider, Falko Schindler, Thomas Laebe, and Wolfgang Foerstner in 2012.

## Usage

Run

```bash
python3 -m pip install bacs
```

to install the library. 
Have a look at the (extensive doc string)[https://github.com/zauberzeug/bacs/blob/main/bacs/bacs.py#L34-L77] for explenation of the parameters.

## Testing / Developing

Make sure you have NumPy and SciPy installed:

```bash
python3 -m pip install numpy scipy
```

By running the provided examples with

```bash
python3 main.py
```

you can verify that bacs is working correctly (eg. no `git diff` in the output data after execution).
