Abstract

The environment perception of autonomous vehicle is mainly aimed at obtaining the holonomic information around the ego-vehicle to understand the driving environment. In this paper, we attempt to use only vehicle-mounted cameras to reconstruct the 3D environment for the autonomous vehicle perception. Firstly, we acquire the continuous frames in vehicle motion to reconstruct continuous 3D point clouds. Secondly, the continuous point clouds can be stitched by the proposed matching constraint and scores of image features. Lastly, we get high-accuracy and high-efficiency dense point cloud of the environment. Experimental results on the benchmark dataset demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed stitching algorithm. Compared with other algorithms and its variants, the MSE of the proposed method is lower than the average and the number of redundant points in overlap regions is reduced.
