Space alignment of camera and Millimeter Wave(MMW) radar

The information fusion of vision sensor and Millimeter Wave(MMW) radar can enhance the adaptability of the Unmanned Ground Vehicle(UGV) to the complex environment. Space alignment is the basic step of information fusion. Based on the alignment problems camera and MMW radar has existed, firstly, according to the max velocity of UGV and the different attention on the close and far object, the calibration distance is determined and divided; then, a space alignment method is presented through the corresponding space point sets in image pixel coordinate of camera and polar coordinate of MMW radar. the results are verified through the experiment and the error is also analyzed.
