Intelligent Localization of Targets in Confined Space via Camera-LiDAR Fusion
This paper proposes an intelligent localization method for targets in confined spaces based on camera and LiDAR fusion. The underground targets are detected in real time using a camera
and then the detected targets in each image are localized within the coordinate system of the generated point cloud map based on LiDAR’s 3D point cloud map. Finally
the techniques such as target fusion and redundancy removal are used to suppress the duplicate targets that arise due to repeated detections and other factors. The target detection and recognition results are annotated onto the point cloud map
yielding a search and localization output that provides an intuitive and efficient representation of the targets in confined space. Experimental results in real confined space show that the proposed method can accurately detect the key targets in the scene in real time
and visually display the target recognition and location information on 3D map and 2D projection map by fusing LiDAR point cloud data.
