Abstract

These work presents a practical camera–LiDAR fusion system for monitoring road traffic. The proposed pipeline combines 2D detections from panoramic images with 3D point clouds to achieve more reliable vehicle extraction. The system includes panorama generation from E57 data, YOLO‑based detection, point‑cloud downsampling, and spatial filtering of points corresponding to detected vehicles.
