  • Method and device for synchronizing between rotary lidar and camera
    Patent number: 11653082
    Abstract: Proposed are a method of synchronizing a rotary LiDAR and a camera, and a device thereof. The synchronization device may include a LiDAR, a camera, and a synchronization control unit. The method of synchronizing a LiDAR and a camera may comprise the steps of: outputting a sample at every predetermined output cycle while rotating, by the LiDAR; deriving a trigger timing that is a time estimated for the LiDAR to rotate from a current position to a trigger target on the basis of the sample, by the synchronization control unit; and outputting a trigger signal to the camera after a time indicated by the trigger timing elapses, by the synchronization control unit. The sample may include a rotation angle indicating the current position of the LiDAR, and the trigger target may indicate a virtual direction in which the center of the angle of view of the LiDAR matches that of the camera.
