OpenPCDet is a PyTorch deep learning library and toolbox for LiDAR 3D object detection. It functions as a point cloud processing framework designed to develop, train, and evaluate machine learning models that identify and locate objects in three dimensional space. The project includes a GPU-accelerated geometry engine for high-performance implementation of 3D intersection over union and rotated non-maximum suppression. It also provides a distributed model training tool to scale the training and testing of detection models across multiple GPUs and computing nodes. The framework covers point c
PointNet is a deep learning architecture designed to process and classify raw 3D point clouds directly without voxelization. It provides a system for 3D object classification, semantic segmentation frameworks for partitioning clouds into categories, and tools for visualizing 3D shapes. The project utilizes a transform network to align point clouds into a canonical coordinate space and employs symmetric-function-based aggregation to condense point-wise features into global vectors regardless of point order. It also features a multi-scale grouping architecture to extract hierarchical geometric
CloudCompare is a professional software application for processing and analyzing 3D point clouds and polygonal meshes. It functions as a 3D mesh analysis tool and a large dataset visualizer designed to display and manage millions of points in a 3D environment. The software provides specialized capabilities for point cloud comparison, utilizing an optimized octree structure to calculate spatial differences between two 3D datasets. This allows for the identification of variations and errors between point clouds or between a point cloud and a mesh. The system covers broad 3D data analysis areas
This is an open-source autonomous driving perception pipeline that processes camera and lidar sensor data to detect, track, and fuse objects in real-world driving environments. The project integrates an end-to-end perception workflow combining sensor calibration, deep learning object detection, Kalman filter tracking, and sensor fusion for robust scene understanding. The pipeline includes camera calibration tools to remove lens distortion from raw images, deep learning model training for object classification and detection, and multi-object tracking using Kalman filters with data association
