In this paper we perform an extensive experimental evaluation of three planar target based 3D-LIDAR camera calibration algorithms, on a sensor suite consisting multiple 3D-LIDARs and cameras, assessing their robustness to random initialization and by using metrics like Mean Line Re-projection Error (MLRE) and Factory Stereo Calibration Error. We briefly describe each method and provide insights in...
