Current perception systems often carry multimodal imagers and sensors such as 2D cameras and 3D LiDAR sensors. To fuse and utilize the data for downstream perception tasks, robust and accurate calibration of the multimodal sensor data is essential. We propose a novel deep learning-driven technique (CalibDNN) for accurate calibration among multimodal sensor, specifically LiDAR-Camera pairs. The key innovation of the proposed work is that it does not require any specific calibration targets or hardware assistants, and the entire processing is fully automatic with a single model and single iteration. Results comparison among different methods and extensive experiments on different datasets demonstrates the state-of-the-art performance.
Our goal is to develop stable, accurate, and robust semantic scene understanding methods for wide-area scene perception and understanding, especially in challenging outdoor environments. To achieve this, we are exploring and evaluating a range of related technology and solutions, including AI-driven multimodal scene perception, fusion, processing, and understanding. This work reports our efforts on the evaluation of a state-of-the-art approach for semantic segmentation with multiple RGB and depth sensing data. We employ four large datasets composed of diverse urban and terrain scenes and design various experimental methods and metrics. In addition, we also develop new strategies of multi-datasets learning to improve the detection and recognition of unseen objects. Extensive experiments, implementations, and results are reported in the paper.
