• Abstract: When localizing and detecting 3D objects for autonomous driving scenes, obtaining information from multiple sensor (e.g. camera, LIDAR) typically increases the robustness of 3D detectors. However, the efficient and effective fusion of different features captured from LIDAR and camera is still challenging, especially due to the sparsity and irregularity of point cloud distributions. This notwithstanding, point clouds offer useful complementary information. In this paper, we would like to leverage the advantages of LIDAR and camera sensors by proposing a deep neural network architecture for the fusion and the efficient detection of 3D objects by identifying their corresponding 3D bounding boxes with orientation. In order to achieve this task, instead of densely combining the point-wise feature of the point cloud and the related pixel features, we propose a novel fusion algorithm by projecting a set of 3D Region of Interests (RoIs) from the point clouds to the 2D RoIs of the corresponding the images. Finally, we demonstrate that our deep fusion approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on the KITTI 3D object detection challenging benchmark.

  We propose the LiDAR-Camera Augmentation Network (LCANet), a novel framework that reconstructs LiDAR point cloud data by fusing 2D image features. LCANet fuses data from LiDAR sensors by projecting image features into the 3D space, integrating semantic information into the point cloud data. This fusion effectively compensates for LiDAR's weakness in detecting objects at long distances, which are often represented by sparse points.
