A method for target detection based on a visible camera, an infrared camera, and a LiDAR is provided. The method designates visible light images, infrared images, and LiDAR point clouds, which are synchronously acquired, as inputs, and generates an input pseudo-point cloud using visible light images and infrared images, to realize alignment of multimodal information in a three-dimensional space and fusion feature extraction. Then the method adopts a cascade strategy to output more accurate target detection results step by step. In the present disclosure, different characteristics of multi-sensors are complemented, which improves and extends traditional target detection algorithms, improves the accuracy and robustness of target detection, and realizes multi-category target detection in a road scene.
