Abstract

This paper reports about a method for calibrating rotating senors, namely, rotating sensor-line cameras and laser range-finders. Both together are used to reconstruct accurately 3D environments, such as, for example, large buildings. One of the important steps in the 3D reconstruction pipeline is the fusion of data. This requires an understanding of spatial relationships among the acquired data. Sensor calibration is the key to accurate 3D models.
