Abstract

Strong demands for accurate reconstruction of non-cooperative target have been arising recent years. The existing methods which combine cameras and laser range finders (LRF) are inconvenient and cost much. We replace the widely used laser range finder with a simple laser, and find that the combination of a camera and a simple calibrated laser is also enough to reconstruct the highly accurate 3-D position of the laser spot. In this paper, we propose a method to calibrate the extrinsic parameters between a camera and a simple laser, and show how to use it to reconstruct a laser spot’s 3-D position. The experiments show that our proposed method can obtain a result which is comparable to the state-of-the-art LRF-based methods.
