Abstract

An automatic calibration method and system for spatial positions of a laser radar and a camera sensor is provided. The method includes: adjusting a spatial position of the laser radar relative to the camera sensor to obtain a plurality of spatial position relationships of the laser radar and the camera sensor; for a spatial position relationship, calculating a gray value of each laser radar point conforming to the line features after projection as a score, and accumulating scores of all laser radar points as a total score; traversing all the spatial position relationships to obtain a plurality of total scores; and selecting a spatial position relationship of the laser radar and the camera sensor corresponding to a highest total score from the plurality of total scores to serve as a calibrated position relationship of the laser radar and the camera sensor.
