LiDAR and cameras are complementary sensors for 3D object detection in autonomous driving. However, it is challenging to explore the unnatural interaction between point clouds and images, and the critical factor is how to conduct feature…

Multi-beam LiDAR sensors, as used on autonomous vehicles and mobile robots, acquire sequences of 3D range scans ("frames"). Each frame covers the scene sparsely, due to limited angular scanning resolution and occlusion. The sparsity…

Current traditional methods for LiDAR-camera extrinsics estimation depend on offline targets and human efforts, while learning-based approaches resort to iterative refinement for calibration results, posing constraints on their…

A misalignment of LiDAR as low as a few degrees could cause a significant error in obstacle detection and mapping that could cause safety and quality issues. In this paper, an accurate inspection system is proposed for estimating a LiDAR…

Scaling to arbitrarily large bundle adjustment problems requires data and compute to be distributed across multiple devices. Centralized methods in prior works are only able to solve small or medium size problems due to overhead in…

Low-latency instance segmentation of LiDAR point clouds is crucial in real-world applications because it serves as an initial and frequently-used building block in a robot's perception pipeline, where every task adds further delay.…

Existing volumetric neural rendering techniques, such as Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF), face limitations in synthesizing high-quality novel views when the camera poses of input images are imperfect. To address this issue, we propose a novel…

The image-based 3D object detection task expects that the predicted 3D bounding box has a ``tightness'' projection (also referred to as cuboid), which fits the object contour well on the image while still keeping the geometric attribute on…

Bundle adjustment is the common way to solve localization and mapping. It is an iterative process in which a system of non-linear equations is solved using two optimization methods, weighted by a damping factor. In the classic approach, the…

Accurate registration of 2D imagery with point clouds is a key technology for image-LiDAR point cloud fusion, camera to laser scanner calibration and camera localization. Despite continuous improvements, automatic registration of 2D and 3D…

In recent years, much progress has been made in LiDAR-based 3D object detection mainly due to advances in detector architecture designs and availability of large-scale LiDAR datasets. Existing 3D object detectors tend to perform well on the…

This paper introduces a network architecture to solve the structure-from-motion (SfM) problem via feature-metric bundle adjustment (BA), which explicitly enforces multi-view geometry constraints in the form of feature-metric error. The…

Multi-modal object detection in autonomous driving has achieved great breakthroughs due to the usage of fusing complementary information from different sensors. The calibration in fusion between sensors such as LiDAR and camera was always…

We propose a new method for fine registering multiple point clouds simultaneously. The approach is characterized by being dense, therefore point clouds are not reduced to pre-selected features in advance. Furthermore, the approach is robust…

Integrating LiDAR and camera information in the bird's eye view (BEV) representation has demonstrated its effectiveness in 3D object detection. However, because of the fundamental disparity in geometric accuracy between these sensors,…
