Calibration of more than 2 modalities #36

Hi, thanks for the great work. I have a velodyne lidar and 2 monocular cameras. Can I use this repository to calibrate the LIDAR and both the cameras together, in total of 3 modalities. If yes, can I add more sensors for overall calibration?

Hi @dkhanna511. Our calibration software is built to calibrate pairs of sensors. In case you have more than 2 modalities, you will need to perform the calibration process several times.

An implementation of the overall calibration you are mentioning is not in our roadmap because it may require the use of several calibration targets, as the field of view of all sensors may not overlap, losing the simplicity of the current version.
