Depth sensors (3D Point Clouds) & their use cases for AVs

Point Depth sensors have been used extensively for developing algorithms in robotics and autonomous driving applications. This talk will skim through different types of depth sensors, their usage, and increasing the utility of their usage from real world and practical usage for sidewalk robots.

Speakers:

Ogail is currently perception and ML lead at Marble Robot Inc developing autonomous sidewalk robots for goods transportation and last mile delivery. Before Marble, Ogail was at Amazon Robotics (formally known as Kiva Systems) in Massachusetts and Microsoft in Seattle. Ogail’s master thesis from University of Washington, Tacoma is focused on adaptive macro-management and strategy planning for rationale agents applied in Real-Time Strategy Games.

Rachit Bhargava is a founding robotics engineer at Marble Robot Inc where he works on developing perception algorithms for the navigation system. He recently graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a Master's degree in Robotics and was part of the GRASP laboratory. Before that he was part of the Robotics Research Center at IIIT Hyderabad working on planning algorithms for space robots and SLAM for ground robots.

Mohammad Musa Founder and CEO of Deepen AI will show tools that support point cloud visualization, fusion and annotation.

Sandwiches and soft drinks will be provided.
