在边缘设备上实现相机与激光雷达融合，提升路口行人感知可靠性。

Reliable roadside perception of vulnerable road users (VRUs) remains challenging under occlusions, variable lighting, and diverse weather conditions, particularly under strict edge-computing and latency constraints. Existing multi-sensor fusion systems rely on cloud or server-grade infrastructure, creating a deployment gap at real-world intersections. We present CLIFE, an edge-native camera-LiDAR fusion framework that integrates targetless online calibration and lightweight late-fusion tracking entirely on a single embedded device, without cloud offloading. CLIFE adaptively refines camera-LiDAR alignment on demand and performs multi-sensor fusion and track association with O(N log N) per-frame cost. We deploy CLIFE across 12 signalized intersections in Chattanooga and conduct an in-depth evaluation at a representative intersection using synchronized camera-LiDAR data that spans diverse daytime, nighttime, and weather conditions. Our experiments demonstrate that the fusion architecture substantially enhances the perceptual range and robustness of the individual sensors under varied environmental and traffic conditions. The late-fusion core operates at 53.2 FPS on the Jetson AGX Thor, ensuring high throughput for real-time intersection-scale applications. By centering perception at the edge, CLIFE provides a deployable foundation for downstream safety applications, while reducing bandwidth and calibration overhead for agencies operating multi-intersection corridors.
