Pointcloud-Segmentation

Overview

In this project, I used Kitti360 dataset to give pointcloud semantic labels using segmentation obtained from a camera image of the scene. I used an implementation of segformer to generate semantic labels on the image. After applying semantic labels on multiple pointclouds, I used ICP registration to generate the mapping of the complete scene.

This repository does the following tasks.

1. Intrinsic calibration of perspective camera (Point Gray Flea 2).
2. Extrinsic calibration of the perspective camera with a Velodyne Lidar (HDL-64E).
3. Projecting lidar points on to the image plane (run python src/utils.py).
4. Generating a colored pointcloud (run python src/gen_color_pcd.py).
5. Applying semantic labels on the pointcloud and registering multiple pointclouds using ICP based registration(run python src/pointcloud_segmentation.py).

Dependencies

Refer to this page to install openMMlab's segmentation repository. Download and paste the desired model in the config folder. Change the segment_image.py file accordingly. Install OpenCV on python.
