LiDARTag
A real-time fiducial tag system for LiDAR point clouds, robust to lighting and compatible with visual markers like AprilTags.
What is LiDARTag?
LiDARTag is a real-time fiducial tag system designed for LiDAR point clouds. It provides a robust alternative to image-based markers by functioning reliably in any lighting condition, including complete darkness. The system detects tags, estimates their pose with high accuracy, and decodes unique IDs, enabling applications like object tracking, sensor calibration, and SLAM.
Robotics researchers and engineers working with LiDAR sensors, especially those involved in autonomous systems, SLAM, multi-sensor calibration, and perception in challenging lighting environments.
Developers choose LiDARTag because it solves the critical limitation of lighting sensitivity in fiducial marker systems. Its real-time performance, high accuracy, and compatibility with existing visual markers make it a unique tool for robust multi-sensor perception where cameras alone are insufficient.
