1. A method comprising: calibrating a weld joint, comprising: detecting, using one or more cameras, a first position of the weld joint relative to the one or more cameras, wherein the first position corresponds to a first location of the weld joint that interfaces with a tip of a calibration tool;de
1. A method comprising: calibrating a weld joint, comprising: detecting, using one or more cameras, a first position of the weld joint relative to the one or more cameras, wherein the first position corresponds to a first location of the weld joint that interfaces with a tip of a calibration tool;detecting, using the one or more cameras, a second position of the weld joint relative to the one or more cameras, wherein the second position corresponds to a second location of the weld joint that interfaces with the tip of the calibration tool;detecting, using the one or more cameras, a curved portion of the weld joint relative to the one or more cameras, wherein the curved portion extends between the first and second positions of the weld joint; andstoring a representation of the curved portion of the weld joint for determining a quality of a welding operation. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein detecting the first position of the weld joint comprises tracking, using the one or more cameras, a third position of the calibration tool, an orientation of the calibration tool, or some combination thereof. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein detecting the curved portion of the weld joint comprises tracking, using the one or more cameras, a third position of the calibration tool, an orientation of the calibration tool, or some combination thereof. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein detecting the first position of the weld joint comprises tracking, using the one or more cameras, a third position of a welding torch, an orientation of the welding torch, or some combination thereof, wherein the calibration tool comprises the welding torch. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein detecting the curved portion of the weld joint comprises tracking, using the one or more cameras, a third position of a welding torch, an orientation of the welding torch, or some combination thereof, wherein the calibration tool comprises the welding torch. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein detecting the first position of the weld joint comprises tracking, using the one or more cameras, a third position of a welding torch, an orientation of the welding torch, or some combination thereof, during a multi-pass welding operation. 7. A method comprising: detecting, using one or more cameras, a first position of a circular weld joint relative to the one or more cameras, wherein the first position corresponds to a first location of the circular weld joint that interfaces with a tip of a calibration tool;detecting, using the one or more cameras, a second position of the circular weld joint relative to the one or more cameras, wherein the second position corresponds to a second location of the circular weld joint that interfaces with the tip of the calibration tool;detecting, using the one or more cameras, a third position of the circular weld joint relative to the one or more cameras, wherein the third position corresponds to a third location of the circular weld joint that interfaces with the tip of the calibration tool; anddetermining a path of the circular weld joint using the first, second, and third positions, comprising calculating a best-fit circle that intersects the first position, the second position, and the third position. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the circular weld joint comprises a pipe joint. 9. The method of claim 7, wherein detecting the first position of the circular weld joint comprises detecting the calibration tool that contacts the first position. 10. The method of claim 7, comprising touching the calibration tool to the circular weld joint in order to detect the first position, the second position, and the third position. 11. The method of claim 7, comprising storing a representation of the path. 12. The method of claim 1, comprising: tracking, using the one or more cameras, a third position of a welding torch tip relative to the one or more cameras during the welding operation;determining a weld path corresponding to the third position of the welding torch tip during the welding operation; andcomparing the weld path to the stored representation of the curved portion of the weld joint and a predetermined threshold. 13. The method of claim 6, wherein tracking, using the one or more cameras, the third position of a welding torch during the multi-pass welding operation on the weld joint comprises storing a representation of a first pass and a second pass of the multi-pass welding operation as a single welding operation.
