By camera calibration do you mean the intrinsic camera params are known? If so, then you can calibrate any camera by an opencv program found here: http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials...ibration.html? That returns the internal camera matrix. I highly recommend running this program on any camera and understanding what it does.

Like I said, get an example of a camera pose estimation to work, then go through the code and see how it accomplishes the task.
