Witty Machines | Senior Robotics Engineer | Zurich, Switzerland | ONSITE | 100-140k CHF + Equity We build physically intelligent software that enables industrial robots to perform …

At ETH we worked on an analog pressure gauge reading project. In the larger project, we wanted to read analog pressure gauges in oil refineries. https://github.com/ethz-asl/analog_…

Aktiia has a product on the market which supposedly already does this https://aktiia.com/uk/ . It is based on an optical method though.

The one thing that is painfully obvious to anyone who has rented an electric vehicle in a foreign country, is that charging those things is close to impossible. Most charging netwo…

These methods learn directly the radiance, in a way which is not lighting dependent. Therefore they would render the same and shadows are not taken into account. Current methods ar…

In terms of advice, I would for sure start by adding GPS logging into the app. The app logs the ARKit odometry information, which could be a good starting point, but don't know how…

That sounds awesome. I do some mountain biking myself and have sometimes thought that it would be cool if you could replay your rides in 3D through a sparse SLAM point cloud. Of co…

Hey everyone! Here is an app I've been working on over the past couple years for my own purposes. The original idea came from me wanting to collect RGB-D scans for research and dev…

Even if it was possible from a legislative perspective, European cities are also considerably harder to drive in than American cities that are cars first with wider lanes and clear…

I’ve not tried it, but you might want to look into https://www.stack-ai.com/ .

I live in Zurich and there are several billboards on my residential street.

There is https://aktiia.com/uk/

I would add that the probability of a task getting done, is inversely proportional to the distance between the people deciding about the task and the people who will actually do it…

The Financial Times comment section is surprisingly civil and useful despite it’s size. Not sure if that is the kind of community you had in mind.

In case someone is interested in recording RGB-D videos for offline processing, I wrote an app for this https://apps.apple.com/us/app/stray-scanner/id1557051662 . It simply writes …

Working on making computer vision for robotics easier. I feel like the real reason we don't have robots doing all of our physical grunt work, is that it is just way too expensive t…

One thing that could help, but obviously would not completely solve everything is some sort of "organic" label/certification for software. Basically have someone audit the software…

Yes if you only care about 2d bbox detection, a smart bounding box annotation tool has some advantages. If you need to solve 3D vision tasks, as is the case in 3D bbox detection, 3…

Yes it relies on the target being static when capturing the training data, but it’s ok for the background to move. We were actually surprised by how well it works on moving objects…
