چکیده
Laser range scanners are a popular method for acquiring three-dimensional geometry due to their accuracy and robustness. Maximizing scanner accuracy while minimizing engineering costs is a key challenge to future scanner designs. Engineering costs arise from both expensive components and difficult calibration

Volume Measurement Using a Laser Scanner
This article discusses ways of measuring accuracy of a laser range finder (LRF) using a specially designed calibration cube (with 3D calibration marks) in the context of a particular application (i.e., measuring volumes). We also compare (by means of experiments) two alternative volume estimation methods.
متن کاملExtrinsic Calibration of a 3D Laser Scanner and an Omnidirectional Camera ?
We propose an approach for external calibration of a 3D laser scanner with an omnidirectional camera system. The utility of an accurate calibration is that it allows for precise co-registration between the camera imagery and the 3D point cloud. This association can be used to enhance various state of the art algorithms in computer vision and robotics. The extrinsic calibration technique used he...
متن کاملRadiometric calibration of a dual-wavelength terrestrial laser scanner using neural networks
The Salford Advanced Laser Canopy Analyser (SALCA) is a unique dual-wavelength full-waveform terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) designed to measure forest canopies. This article has two principle objectives, first to present the detailed analysis of the radiometric properties of the SALCA instrument, and second, to propose a novel method to calibrate the recorded intensity to apparent reflectance ...
متن کاملLaser-Video Scanner Calibration without the use of a frame store
Abstract We present a new calibration method for a structured light surface scanner. The new method uses a model-based calibration, accounting for laser stripe and translation stage alignment and the internal and external camera parameters. The inclusion of non-linear radial distortion in the camera model gives an improvement in the calibration accuracy over a linear model. The method has been ...
متن کاملModeling and Calibration of a Novel One-Mirror Galvanometric Laser Scanner
A laser stripe sensor has limited application when a point cloud of geometric samples on the surface of the object needs to be collected, so a galvanometric laser scanner is designed by using a one-mirror galvanometer element as its mechanical device to drive the laser stripe to sweep along the object. A novel mathematical model is derived for the proposed galvanometer laser scanner without any...
