🛠️ Software Release 🛠️
PlanarMesh is a real-time algorithm for minimal LiDAR mesh reconstruction:
github.com/ori-drs/planar_me…
PlanarMesh directly estimates planar surfaces with high fidelity and data compactness - 10x smaller than SotA methods.
PlanarMesh incrementally updates the mesh reconstruction using free-space data and hybrid plane modeling and meshing.
Check out the code to see how it reconstructs complex geometry and flat surfaces simultaneously. Developed by Jiahao Wang:

Next month at @NeurIPSConf: @ckassab1 will present a new benchmark for open-vocab scene understanding - OpenLex3D.

🌍 | Oxford researchers are using robotics to transform sustainable forest management practices in the pioneering DigiForest project, joining a wider @HorizonEU team with partners across Europe @digiforest_eu.
#OxfordClimate | @dynamicrobots | @oxfordrobots | @oxengsci
Last week we did a successful field demo of our work in @digiforest_eu in Forest of Dean - with thanks to @Forest_Research and @ForestryEngland

!! PhD Studentships - Please Retweet !!
I have two funded studentships (to start October 25) in @oxfordrobots
Studentship 1 is in the space of multi-sensor mapping and scene understanding. I'm open to projects in scene graphs, neural representations and active mapping.
Next week, out team will be presenting 3 papers in #IROS2024!
The works have been developed in the context of the @digiforest_eu EU Project, and address different aspects of localization, registration, and trait estimation in forest environments.
A short thread 🧵
Leonard Freissmuth (who visited us from TUM for 6 months) will present an online system to extract tree traits from LiDAR data. With @StefanLeuteneg1
Session: FrPI6T5, Room 5, "Field Robotics"
