3D object detection based on LiDAR point clouds is a crucial module in autonomous driving particularly for long range sensing. Most of the research is focused on achieving higher accuracy and these models are not optimized for deployment on embedded systems from the perspective of latency and power efficiency. For high speed driving scenarios, latency is a crucial parameter as it provides more time to react to dangerous situations. Typically a voxel or point-cloud based 3D convolution approach is utilized for this module. Firstly, they are inefficient on embedded platforms as they are not suitable for efficient parallelization. Secondly, they have a variable runtime due to level of sparsity of the scene which is against the determinism needed in a safety system. In this work, we aim to develop a very low latency algorithm with fixed runtime. We propose a novel semantic segmentation architecture as a single unified model for object center detection using key points, box predictions and orientation prediction using binned classification in a simpler Birds Eye View (BEV) 2D representation. The proposed architecture can be trivially extended to include semantic segmentation classes like road without any additional computation. The proposed model has a latency of 4 ms on the embedded Nvidia Xavier platform. The model is 5X faster than other top accuracy models with a minimal accuracy degradation of 2% in Average Precision at IoU=0.5 on KITTI dataset.
The strong demand of autonomous driving in the industry has lead to strong interest in 3D object detection and resulted in many excellent 3D object detection algorithms. However, the vast majority of algorithms only model single-frame data, ignoring
In this work, we propose an efficient and accurate monocular 3D detection framework in single shot. Most successful 3D detectors take the projection constraint from the 3D bounding box to the 2D box as an important component. Four edges of a 2D box p
Lidar has become an essential sensor for autonomous driving as it provides reliable depth estimation. Lidar is also the primary sensor used in building 3D maps which can be used even in the case of low-cost systems which do not use Lidar. Computation
Monocular 3D detection currently struggles with extremely lower detection rates compared to LiDAR-based methods. The poor accuracy is mainly caused by the absence of accurate location cues due to the ill-posed nature of monocular imagery. LiDAR point
Considerable progress has been made in semantic scene understanding of road scenes with monocular cameras. It is, however, mainly related to certain classes such as cars and pedestrians. This work investigates traffic cones, an object class crucial f
