Abstract In this study, a vision-based displacement measurement system is developed to accurately measure the displacement of a structure with locating the camera at arbitrary position. The previous vision-based system brings error when the optical axis of a camera has an angle with the measured structure, which limits the applicability at large structures. The developed system measures displacement by processing the images of a target plate that is attached on the measured position of a structure. To measure displacement regardless of the angle between the optical axis of the camera and the target plate, planar homography is employed to match two planes in image and world coordinate systems. To validate the performance of the present system, a laboratory test is carried out using a small 2-story shear building model. The result shows that the present system measures accurate displacement of the structure even with a camera significantly angled with the target plate.
