Abstract

An apparatus and method capable of calculating a coordinate transformation parameter without having to utilize a rig are provided. The apparatus and method extract a first feature point based on a plane of first data, project the first feature point onto second data and then extract a second feature point from a part of the second data onto which the first feature point is projected. Then, calibration is performed based on the extracted feature points. Therefore, it is possible to perform calibration immediately as necessary without having to utilize a separate device such as a rig.
