SynCalib: Breaking Dataset Shortcuts in LiDAR-Camera Calibration via Extrinsic-Controllable Synthesis

To address this limitation, we propose a highly generalizable data generation framework tailored for training LiDAR-camera calibration networks.

Key points

  • Online LiDAR-camera calibration remains a fundamental yet challenging task in the field of robotics.
  • Recently, deep learning-based data-driven approaches have emerged, offering high-precision, targetless calibration capabilities.
  • Our framework leverages existing omnidirectional image datasets annotated with depth ground truth to synthesize multi-modal calibration data under rigorous extrinsic constraints.
  • Extensive experiments demonstrate that the data generated by our pipeline significantly enhances the generalization and robustness of typical learning-based calibration networks.
