General Motors on Wednesday announced a cutting-edge upgrade to its inbound highway driver-assistance technology. In 2028, GM will add eyes-off highway driving to its bag of tricks, starting with the ...

Point cloud tooling in Python is fragmented. laspy reads files. Open3D visualizes them. PDAL pipelines transform them. But nothing treats acquisition platform as a first-class concept — and platform ...

LiDAR sensors once cost $50,000. Now they’re just a few hundred dollars, pushing automakers like Rivian and Ford to adopt the tech for safer, smarter cars. China slashed LiDAR costs from $50,000 to a ...

Here, ICP, which is a very basic option for LiDAR, and Scan Context (IROS 18) are used for odometry and loop detection, respectively. (Here, no accelerated and naive) ICP gets 7-10 Hz for randomly ...

Christopher Hernandez received funding from the National Science Foundation (grant number SPRF 1715009) for the lidar work in Puerto Bello Metzabok. Picture an aircraft streaking across the sky at ...

Picture an aircraft streaking across the sky at hundreds of miles per hour, unleashing millions of laser pulses into a dense tropical forest. The objective: map thousands of square miles, including ...

In a recent study, researchers from China have developed a chip-scale LiDAR system that mimics the human eye's foveation by dynamically concentrating high-resolution sensing on regions of interest ...

In this guest blog, Karen McNulty Walsh of Brookhaven National Laboratory explains how Michigan Technological University scientists and alumni developed an innovative, centimeter-scale view into ...

The iPhone in your hand likely has two or three cameras on the back: Non‑Pro models typically have two, while Pro models have three. If it's the latter, your iPhone Pro model may have a larger black ...

Chinese lidar-maker Hesai announced plans on Monday to double its production capacity from 2 million units to 4 million units this year, as it looks to corner the global market for the laser-based ...
