HOW IT WORKS
Step 1: Set up your camera and checkerboard
Place your camera with a prime lens facing the printed checkerboard pattern. Kalibrate works with any camera you have — no extra tracking hardware needed. This simple setup means less gear, less hassle, and more flexibility on location.
Step 2: Run Kalibrate to automatically track and capture images
Start the software and let Kalibrate detect the checkerboard in real-time. It automatically takes the calibration photos without you needing to press any buttons. This automation saves you time and eliminates human error from manual image capturing.
Step 3: Kalibrate calculates lens distortion and exports a JSON file
Using the captured images, Kalibrate instantly computes your lens’s distortion parameters (including K1) and exports all calibration data into a JSON file.
Step 4: Convert JSON to Unreal assets using the Python script
Next, run the included Python script which takes the JSON output and creates Unreal Engine lens and camera asset files. This seamless workflow integrates your calibrated data directly into Unreal, ready for immediate use.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is lens calibration for Unreal Engine?
Lens calibration for Unreal Engine is the process of measuring and correcting your camera’s lens distortion (especially K1) so that virtual cameras match real-world footage. Kalibrate automates this specifically for Unreal Engine users.
How does camera calibration software like Kalibrate work?
Kalibrate uses automatic checkerboard tracking to capture calibration images, computes K1 distortion, exports a JSON file, and includes a Python script to convert that JSON into Unreal Engine lens and camera assets.
Do I need tracking hardware for lens calibration?
No—you don’t need expensive gear like motion capture rigs or lens encoders. Kalibrate only requires a checkerboard and your prime lens camera, making lens calibration accessible, portable and affordable.
Can one-person lens calibration be accurate?
Yes. Kalibrate is built for solo users—it auto-detects the checkerboard, captures images, calculates distortion, and exports Unreal-ready files all with just one operator.
How long does Unreal Engine lens calibration take with Kalibrate?
Kalibrate completes the entire process—capture, distortion calculation, JSON export, and Unreal asset conversion—in under 5 minutes, drastically faster than traditional workflows.
Which cameras and lenses are supported by Kalibrate?
Kalibrate supports any camera and prime lens, including Canon, Nikon, Sony, and more. As long as you can shoot a checkerboard image, Kalibrate will calibrate it.
Will I need to recalibrate if I change lenses?
Yes—any lens change or camera swap requires recalibration. With Kalibrate, however, it’s quick and easy, requiring just minutes per setup.
What comes with Kalibrate camera calibration software download?
You receive: Kalibrate desktop software (for calibration and JSON export), a Python conversion script (for Unreal import), a user guide, and free updates with email support.
Is there a Kalibrate subscription fee?
No—Kalibrate is a one-time purchase of $100. There are no monthly fees, hidden costs, or upgrades required.
How do I import lens calibration data into Unreal Engine?
After generating calibration JSON with Kalibrate, run the included Python script to produce Unreal lens and camera asset files, which you can import into Unreal Engine and apply directly to your virtual camera.
