To improve the detection accuracy of autonomous vehicles system, a technology that integrates thermal and optical images is being developed in bad weather. First of all, it requires a calibration method to fuse images. For the calibration of images, a thermal imaging camera must be able to clearly distinguish areas with a calibration target that accurately creates heating areas. In the study, we used reflectors to prevent thermal diffusion. This allows the thermal imaging camera to accurately distinguish areas. Also, we developed an optical camera calibration method that uses an identical calibration target with the thermal imaging camera.
