A Branch-and-Bound Algorithm for Checkerboard Extraction in Camera-Laser Calibration

Alireza Khosravian, Tat-Jun Chin, Ian Reid

We address the problem of camera-to-laser-scanner calibration using a checkerboard and multiple image-laser scan pairs. Distinguishing which laser points measure the checkerboard a…
