Imaging Hidden Objects with Consumer LiDAR via Motion Induced Sampling
Siddharth Somasundaram, Aaron Young, Akshat Dave +2
LiDARs are being increasingly deployed for consumer imaging in handheld, wearable, and robotic applications. These sensors can capture the time-of-flight of light at picosecond res…
Shoot-Bounce-3D: Single-Shot Occlusion-Aware 3D from Lidar by Decomposing Two-Bounce Light
Tzofi Klinghoffer, Siddharth Somasundaram, Xiaoyu Xiang +5
3D scene reconstruction from a single measurement is challenging, especially in the presence of occluded regions and specular materials, such as mirrors. We address these challenge…
Task-Driven Implicit Representations for Automated Design of LiDAR Systems
Nikhil Behari, Aaron Young, Tzofi Klinghoffer +2
Imaging system design is a complex, time-consuming, and largely manual process; LiDAR design, ubiquitous in mobile devices, autonomous vehicles, and aerial imaging platforms, adds…
Event Cameras Meet SPADs for High-Speed, Low-Bandwidth Imaging
Manasi Muglikar, Siddharth Somasundaram, Akshat Dave +3
Traditional cameras face a trade-off between low-light performance and high-speed imaging: longer exposure times to capture sufficient light results in motion blur, whereas shorter…
Enhancing Autonomous Navigation by Imaging Hidden Objects using Single-Photon LiDAR
Aaron Young, Nevindu M. Batagoda, Harry Zhang +4
Robust autonomous navigation in environments with limited visibility remains a critical challenge in robotics. We present a novel approach that leverages Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) s…
What if Eye...? Computationally Recreating Vision Evolution
Kushagra Tiwary, Aaron Young, Zaid Tasneem +6
Vision systems in nature show remarkable diversity, from simple light-sensitive patches to complex camera eyes with lenses. While natural selection has produced these eyes through…
