I need to explain the pinhole camera model in my research paper and the figure in the Camera Calibration and 3D Reconstruction page offers perfect illustration:

It is from the page:

OpenCV: Camera Calibration and 3D Reconstruction

Do I need to ask for permission to use this figure? If so, where should I look for help?

Thanks a lot.

i don't think, you need to ask for permission.

opencv's code, as well as the docs are BSD licensed

also: https://github.com/opencv/opencv/wiki...

... that said, don't forget to cite the source, to avoid plagiarism.
