Calibration between a Camera and Laser for 3D Modeling

This paper presents a method for calibration between a camera and a grid pattern laser based on flexible camera calibration proposed by Zhang. Recently, the 3D data acquisition system which composed of a camera and a laser receives much attention to make it smaller and cheaper. In order to reconstruct 3D scene by the system consisting of a camera and a laser, laser planes which are emitted by the laser should be precisely estimated. By the proposed methods, we estimated accurate laser planes and performed 3D reconstruction.
