Coordinate System
Introduction 2D & 3D Fusion dataset coordinate system including camera parameter configuration
The point cloud annotation tool mainly involves two coordinate systems:
The 3D point cloud tool uses a right-handed coordinate system. The coordinate system of the point cloud data is the world coordinate system, and the coordinate system of the point cloud is up with the Z axis (as shown in the figure below).
The position information position of the 3D annotation result is the coordinate value of the relative point cloud coordinate system
The origin of the image in the 2D & 3D fusion tool mapping of the point cloud tool is in the upper left corner of the image. The horizontal represents the X axis. The vertical represents the Y axis.
The X value becomes larger to the right, and the Y value becomes larger downward (as shown in the figure below).
The coordinate position information in the 2D annotation result is the value relative to the image coordinate system.
The 2D & 3D mapping conversion process in the tool is basically the same as that of the general dataset, and the conversion parameters include camera extrinsic parameters and camera intrinsic parameters.

- height: Image height
- cameraExternal: Intrinsic parameters of camera
- cameraInternal: Camera matrix with
4x4 - rowMajor: Whether cameraExternal is the row-major order or not, default is
true
The general data conversion process is as follows:
point coordinates * camera external parameters * camera internal parameters = image coordinates
- X/Y/Z: point cloud coordinate system coordinates
- r11...t3: Camera extrinsic parameter matrix information
- Fx/Fy/Cx/Cy: Camera internal parameter information
- S(u,v): Image coordinates
The data conversion process of the tool is as follows:
S(u,v) = M(internal) x M(external) x P
- P : point cloud coordinate system coordinates.
- M(internal) : 4x4 internal parameter matrix (row order)
- M(external) : 4x4 external parameter matrix (row order)
When building the camera parameters into the tool, the 4x3 or 3x3 matrix needs to be filled into a 4x4 matrix, as follows:
Internal parameter conversion
External parameter conversion
A 3D point x in Velodyne LiDAR coordinates gets projected to a point y in the i’th camera image as:
y = P(i) @ R(0) @ Tvelo_cam @ xCode with Three.js
