Automatic Calibration of a Range Sensor and Camera System
Conference Paper, Proceedings of 2nd International Conference on 3D Imaging, Modeling, Processing, Visualization & Transmission (3DIMPVT '12), pp. 286 - 292, October, 2012
Abstract
We propose an automated method to recover the full calibration parameters between a 3D range sensor and a monocular camera system. Our method is not only accurate and fully automated, but also relies on a simple calibration target consisting of a single circle. This allows the algorithm to be suitable for applications requiring in-situ calibration. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithm on a camera-lidar system and show results on 3D mapping tasks.
