@carltongibson Not reduce(lambda a,b: a^b, bools)

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@Poyonoz @Scobleizer Exactly, I don’t see this as LiDAR market shrinking, more like the utility and use cases for low cost camera-only solutions will grow faster and outpace LiDAR adoption

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@Poyonoz @Scobleizer … but End2end deep learning reconstructions will enable cameras to perform well, even in low light, for a much larger emerging class of use cases (ie construction monitoring, facility documentation, digital twin creation, infrastructure inspection)

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@Poyonoz @Scobleizer Vegetation is a use case where LiDAR will always be better , especially to penetrate the canopy and capture the ground 😎🌲

Pitch dark environments like underground mining operations same story, the active LiDAR is required…

Same for bathymetric and boundary surveys…

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@vikasreddy @barmijo @Scobleizer Andrej Karpathy addressed that in his CVPR talk - the latency from LiDAR is slower than camera+IMU input which messes up their models and ground truth labeling

@quantombone @spillai @m_mokros @GiseopK @HanmeKim The results from iPad LiDAR are really impressive! I’m very curious about the multicam system

Hey @AmirRubin, check out this 3D #computervision project which uses SuperGlue, a deep feature-based matcher—extremely useful for creating a robust #digitaltwin of outdoor spaces. Thanks @ducha_aiki for sharing!

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@quantombone @ducha_aiki I love this! SuperGlue and deep front ends are game changers for 3D reconstruction. The robustness of learned features+homography is bringing digital twin creation into the hands of non-expert users 🤓

I mean, I’m not talking metaverse scale just yet but who knows? 😎😎

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@jackmorrison @quantombone Details coming soon 😎 And next time I'm back in CO let's hit the slopes 🏂!!

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@quantombone Anyone interested in chatting more please reach out/DM me!

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@quantombone We are at the very beginning of the impact 3D mapping+ SLAM will have on the future; Metaverse concepts will transform how we play and interact, but Digital Twins are the foundation for transforming industry!

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@jackmorrison @quantombone Ha you are too kind! And huge congrats again on the Scythe launch!!

@lifemath_ 1…e5 !

@AjdDavison I’ve read hypotheses that certain molecules in bird eyes become quantum entangled with earth’s magnetic fields allowing them to navigate and stabilize relative to the magnetic field - very strange!

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@vikasreddy Congrats Vikas! The demo is great - this is an exciting idea that tons of creators are going to love!

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@quantombone The land use of our neighborhoods and cities are dominated by cars, which waste precious space when parked, and are dangerous to people when driving - We need a new infrastructure that allows neighborhoods to reclaim streets for families!

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@ducha_aiki @quantombone This is interesting- there still needs to be a reliable and effective infrastructure that doesn’t rely on cars!

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@WTEric @FBRealityLabs Congrats Eric!

[Amir Rubin @AmirRubin]

@edersantana @quantombone Ha! It is time to make NeRF fields ‘op’ for robots (is that a good LoL joke?) We’re bring those nerf guns back😎
