Terrain awareness is an essential milestone to enable truly autonomous off-road navigation. Accurately predicting terrain characteristics allows optimizing a vehicle's path against potential hazards. Recent methods use deep neural networks to predict terrain properties in a self-supervised manner, r
Visual Odometry (VO) is one of the fundamental tasks in computer vision for robotics. However, its performance is deeply affected by High Dynamic Range (HDR) scenes, omnipresent outdoor. While new Automatic-Exposure (AE) approaches to mitigate this have appeared, their comparison in a reproducible m…
Recent works in object detection in LiDAR point clouds mostly focus on predicting bounding boxes around objects. This prediction is commonly achieved using anchor-based or anchor-free detectors that predict bounding boxes, requiring significant explicit prior knowledge about the objects to work prop…
Wood logs picking is a challenging task to automate. Indeed, logs usually come in cluttered configurations, randomly orientated and overlapping. Recent work on log picking automation usually assume that the logs' pose is known, with little consideration given to the actual perception problem. In thi…
