Automatic Extrinsic Calibration Method for LiDAR and Camera Sensor Setups
Automatic Extrinsic Calibration Method for LiDAR and Camera Sensor Setups

This paper proposes a method to calibrate extrinsic parameters between LiDARs and cameras (monocular or stereo) to ensure accurate alignment for autonomous perception systems. The approach extracts reference points from custom calibration targets and computes an optimal transformation, showing superior performance in both synthetic and real-world tests.
