This package has been tested under [ROS] Kinetic and Ubuntu 16.04.
[Note] This package is used for automatic extrinsic calibration between a 3D LiDAR and a camera, described in paper: 3D LiDAR Intrinsic Calibration and Automatic System for LiDAR to Camera Calibration (PDF) and used for extrinsic calibration between a 3D LiDAR and a camera, described in paper: Improvements to Target-Based 3D LiDAR to Camera Calibration (PDF)
[Issues] If you encounter any issues, I would be happy to help. If you cannot find a related one in the existing issues, please open a new one. I will try my best to help!
It takes a camera image and outputs the corresponding ID, tag size, pose, inner corners, and outer corners, etc.
Please download the AprilTag_msgs and place them under a catkin workspace. Inside the package, please make the AprilTag library first, or you will encounter compiling error.
Please download from here.
This package provides a launch file that you can directly run the package.
