ROS package to calibrate a camera and a LiDAR.

alt text

The package is used to calibrate a LiDAR (config to support Hesai and Velodyne hardware) with a camera (works for both monocular and stereo).

The package finds a rotation and translation that transform all the points in the LiDAR frame to the (monocular) camera frame. Please see Usage for a video tutorial. The lidar_camera_calibration/pointcloud_fusion provides a script to fuse point clouds obtained from two stereo cameras. Both of which were extrinsically calibrated using a LiDAR and lidar_camera_calibration. We show the accuracy of the proposed pipeline by fusing point clouds, with near perfection, from multiple cameras kept in various positions. See Fusion using lidar_camera_calibration for results of the point cloud fusion (videos).

For more details please refer to our paper.

ROS package to calibrate a camera and a LiDAR.

alt text

The package is used to calibrate a LiDAR (config to support Hesai and Velodyne hardware) with a camera (works for both monocular and stereo).

The package finds a rotation and translation that transform all the points in the LiDAR frame to the (monocular) camera frame. Please see Usage for a video tutorial. The lidar_camera_calibration/pointcloud_fusion provides a script to fuse point clouds obtained from two stereo cameras. Both of which were extrinsically calibrated using a LiDAR and lidar_camera_calibration. We show the accuracy of the proposed pipeline by fusing point clouds, with near perfection, from multiple cameras kept in various positions. See Fusion using lidar_camera_calibration for results of the point cloud fusion (videos).

For more details please refer to our paper.

Contributing

As an open-source project, your contributions matter! If you would like to contribute and improve this project consider submitting a pull request. That way future users can find this package useful just like you did. Here is a non-exhaustive list of features that can be a good starting point:

Iterative process with ~~weighted~~ average over multiple runs
Passing Workflows for Kinetic, Melodic and Noetic
Hesai and Velodyne LiDAR options (see Getting Started)
Integrate LiDAR hardware from other manufacturers

ROS package to calibrate a camera and a LiDAR.

alt text

The package is used to calibrate a LiDAR (config to support Hesai and Velodyne hardware) with a camera (works for both monocular and stereo).

The package finds a rotation and translation that transform all the points in the LiDAR frame to the (monocular) camera frame. Please see Usage for a video tutorial. The lidar_camera_calibration/pointcloud_fusion provides a script to fuse point clouds obtained from two stereo cameras. Both of which were extrinsically calibrated using a LiDAR and lidar_camera_calibration. We show the accuracy of the proposed pipeline by fusing point clouds, with near perfection, from multiple cameras kept in various positions. See Fusion using lidar_camera_calibration for results of the point cloud fusion (videos).

For more details please refer to our paper.

Contributing

As an open-source project, your contributions matter! If you would like to contribute and improve this project consider submitting a pull request. That way future users can find this package useful just like you did. Here is a non-exhaustive list of features that can be a good starting point:

Iterative process with ~~weighted~~ average over multiple runs
Passing Workflows for Kinetic, Melodic and Noetic
Hesai and Velodyne LiDAR options (see Getting Started)

ROS package to calibrate a camera and a LiDAR.

alt text

The package is used to calibrate a LiDAR (config to support Hesai and Velodyne hardware) with a camera (works for both monocular and stereo).

The package finds a rotation and translation that transform all the points in the LiDAR frame to the (monocular) camera frame. Please see Usage for a video tutorial. The lidar_camera_calibration/pointcloud_fusion provides a script to fuse point clouds obtained from two stereo cameras. Both of which were extrinsically calibrated using a LiDAR and lidar_camera_calibration. We show the accuracy of the proposed pipeline by fusing point clouds, with near perfection, from multiple cameras kept in various positions. See Fusion using lidar_camera_calibration for results of the point cloud fusion (videos).

For more details please refer to our paper.

Contributing

As an open-source project, your contributions matter! If you would like to contribute and improve this project consider submitting a pull request. That way future users can find this package useful just like you did. Here is a non-exhaustive list of features that can be a good starting point:

Iterative process with ~~weighted~~ average over multiple runs
Passing Workflows for Kinetic, Melodic and Noetic
Hesai and Velodyne LiDAR options (see Getting Started)
Integrate LiDAR hardware from other manufacturers

ROS package to calibrate a camera and a LiDAR.

alt text

The package is used to calibrate a LiDAR (config to support Hesai and Velodyne hardware) with a camera (works for both monocular and stereo).

The package finds a rotation and translation that transform all the points in the LiDAR frame to the (monocular) camera frame. Please see Usage for a video tutorial. The lidar_camera_calibration/pointcloud_fusion provides a script to fuse point clouds obtained from two stereo cameras. Both of which were extrinsically calibrated using a LiDAR and lidar_camera_calibration. We show the accuracy of the proposed pipeline by fusing point clouds, with near perfection, from multiple cameras kept in various positions. See Fusion using lidar_camera_calibration for results of the point cloud fusion (videos).

For more details please refer to our paper.

Contributing

As an open-source project, your contributions matter! If you would like to contribute and improve this project consider submitting a pull request. That way future users can find this package useful just like you did. Here is a non-exhaustive list of features that can be a good starting point:

Iterative process with ~~weighted~~ average over multiple runs
Passing Workflows for Kinetic, Melodic and Noetic
Hesai and Velodyne LiDAR options (see Getting Started)
Integrate LiDAR hardware from other manufacturers
Automate process of marking line-segments
Github Workflow with functional test on dummy data
Support for upcoming Linux Distros
Support for running the package in ROS2
Tests to improve the quality of the project

Getting Started

There are a couple of configuration files that need to be specfied in order to calibrate the camera and the LiDAR. The config files are available in the lidar_camera_calibration/conf directory. The find_transform.launch file is available in the lidar_camera_calibration/launch directory.
