Abstract
Examples disclosed herein involve a computing system configured to (i) obtain first image data captured by a first camera of a vehicle during a given period of operation of the vehicle, (ii) obtain second image data captured by a second camera of the vehicle during the given period of operation, (iii) based on the obtained first and second image data, determine (a) a candidate extrinsics transformation between the first camera and the second camera and (b) a candidate time offset between the first camera and the second camera, and (iv) based on (a) the candidate extrinsics transformation and (b) the candidate time offset, apply optimization to determine a combination of (a) an extrinsics transformation and (b) a time offset that minimizes a reprojection error in the first image data, where the reprojection error is defined based on a representation of at least one landmark that is included in both the first and second image data.
