1/ 🎉 Day 8 of #AllinAI: As someone who's always been fascinated by #AR #VR and 3D scanning, I'm excited to explore Neural Radiance Fields (#NeRF)! NeRF is a game-changing AI technique that has transformed the 3D scene reconstruction & rendering. Let's dive in!
2/ 📊 Traditional 3D scanning methods like #photogrammetry & #lidar faced challenges like noise, inconsistencies & limited detail. NeRF uses AI to help overcome these by creating high-quality 3D renderings from 2D images.
3/ 🌐 How it works: Take a few pictures of an object. NeRF's deep neural network optimizes the radiance field to match the 2D image, combining color & volume density to create a stunning, detailed 3D rendering.

The wait is over: A new release of #HELIOS++ is out. Get v1.2.0 here: github.com/3dgeo-heidelbe… #opensource #opensourcesoftware #3dgeo #LiDARSimulation #VLS #laserscanning
🧵 to summarize the new features and improvements (1/7)
➡️Interpolated trajectories
You can now input existing trajectory files (time, roll, pitch, yaw, x, y, z) and your simulated platform will follow this trajectory. Find a simple example here: nbviewer.org/github/3dgeo-h… (2/7)
➡️Multi-channel scanners
Multi-channel scanners are now supported. We created #jupyternotebook demos for two popular scanners, the @LivoxTech Mid-100 and the @VelodyneLidar Puck. Check out one of our demos: a) nbviewer.org/github/3dgeo-h… b) nbviewer.org/github/3dgeo-h… (3/7)

#quantum is here! Why not collect #fluorescence #photon-by-photon in your laser-scanning #microscope? We developed the #BrightEyes_TTM, an #opensource data acquisition system able to do it!

@IITalk @ERC_Research @RNA_iit @MSCActions #BrightEyes_ERC
(1/5) Image
Our time-tagging #DAQ module can collect single-photon signals from 25 independent channels and reference signals from 3 channels. We showed how this module combined with a #SPAD array allows us to perform #FLISM and #FLFS. (2/5)
#imagescanningmicroscopy #fluorescence #lifetime Image
We characterized the #BrightEyes_TTM. We can reach a single-shot precision of 30 ps, 4 ns dead-time, and an "infinite" range in all channels, with a total flux of up to 125 MHz. (3/5)

$CPTN Shaping mobility together. Cepton has entered into a binding agreement with our long-term automotive Tier 1 partner and current shareholder, Koito, for a $100 million investment: cepton.com/announcements/…

#lidar #smartmobility #Investment #ADAS #autonomousvehicles Image
Under the terms of the agreement, Koito will purchase $100 million of convertible preferred stock at an initial conversion price representing a 13.4% premium to Cepton’s closing price yesterday and a 7.0% premium to Cepton’s average closing price over the last five trading days.
This marks Koito’s third investment in $CPTN since 2020, and we are excited to strengthen our partnership and continue our focus on commercialization and mass-market deployment of our lidar solutions!

Vous voulez un petit exemple des dialogues de sourds en matière d'environnement/numérique ? Je viens d'assister à un exemple très ponctuel mais qui me semble très révélateur, au sujet de l'#opendata.
Depuis quelques temps il y a une poussée pour *fermer* l'opendata sous couvert d'environnement. Je reviens plus bas sur le "sous couvert", voici juste un document qui va être publié en version définitive sous peu (donc quasi finalisé). opendatafrance.net/2022/09/22/sob…
Voici un extrait de recommandation très discutable sur les données géographiques, aussi bien en terme d'impact (faible au point d'être non mesurable) qu'en terme de pertinence (trop peu précis dans pas mal d'usages, notamment quand Galileo sera pleinement opérationnel).

This new @Polycam3D room scan tool is bonkers … another step closer to the commoditization of the digitization of assets. 😳🚀 #lidar #3D #metaverse @Apple #Apple
Here is the full floor 3D model + measurements + walk through … all on the iPhone in minutes. So clean. 🤯🤯🤯 Next up, drop it in the @simulacra_io metaverse platform for a full social walk through. The use cases of this are bananas. 📈📈📈
Only took minutes to drop the raw model into the @simulacra_io metaverse platform. Few clicks in the web browser and anyone on the planet with internet can meet up in the digital twin. (Needs scale and texture work - but dang that flow is efficient). 👀 @Polycam3D

2/ Il s'agit probablement de résidus de charbons issus de la fabrication de charbon sur meule : une plateforme de #charbonnage, communément appelée place à feu. Image
3/ Pourtant dans l'état actuel, il n'y a pas un #arbre pour en fabriquer !...Vous l'aurez compris, leur observation est rendue possible suite à un défrichement postérieur aux combustions.
Autrement dit : leur observation signale la présence révolue d'une forêt. ImageImage

Voxelizing a photogrammetry mesh to render it in Unreal Engine

Using voxels makes it lightweight to render and allows for extremely easy & speedy edits

1/3

#ue5 #voxel #lidar #photogrammetry
Voxelization is fully GPU-based and only takes a few minutes for huge meshes (several GB)

Collisions are fully supported, only loading the area around the player to reduce perf impact

2/3
The photogrammetry mesh was created in DJI Terra by @TotalviewVR

Combined with the voxelized LiDAR interiors, this is going to make a pretty fun package :)

If you're in the visualization industry & want to learn more you can contact us at contact@voxelplugin.com

1/5 #TropiCon21 Large rivers are integral to Amazonia, and their associated wetlands are a key maintainer of biodiversity and carbon cycling & they are essential to support the majority of people living in the Amazon. Yet wetlands are rarely included in climate-ecosystem models. Image
2/5 #TropiCon21 Amz wetlands are under immediate threat by climate change, deforestation and hydropower damming. Dams cause profound changes to the ecosystems (doi.org/10.1002/aqc.35…), and so do deforestation and climate-related changes that are known to be already happening. Image
3/5 #TropiCon21 We know little about forest assembly/function in Amz wetlands. Correlative studies show inundation dynamics and trophic levels strongly influence species composition. But what are the eco-evo mechanisms behind it? At what spatial / temporal scales do they operate? Image

#Lidar is an operational technology for #forestinventory. Single-photon lidar (#SPL) may provide an acquisition advantage for large areas. How does #SPL perform in an area-based #forest inventory? Some things we have learned (i.e. a thread)!

#OpenAccess: bit.ly/37GTeZG
2/ We used #SPL and 269 field plots to generate an area-based operational #forestinventory over a 15000 ha study area of temperate mixedwood forest representing a complex assemblage of tree species, forest structures, and management histories. bit.ly/37GTeZG
3/ We validated our #forestinventory estimates at the stand-level using independent field measured data. Why? Because the stand is the fundamental spatial unit for forest management and planning, and the unit at which decisions are made. #CFSEFI bit.ly/37GTeZG

An increasingly common question: “We generated an enhanced forest inventory with #lidar data and ground plots for one of our management units. Can we use the same models for our other management areas?” #CFSEFI #forestinventory
A great question and one that is top of mind for many of us who generate and use #forestinventory data. So what does the #science tell us about the transferability of area-based models? #CFSEFI
Fekety et al. 2015: "Mapping response variables at the landscape level demonstrates that the relationship between field data and LiDAR metrics holds true even though the data were collected in different years."

Playing around with #aerialod by @ephtracy, new software that makes it fairly straightforward to create renderings of #lidar terrain data, cleared of forest. It's amazing....
@ephtracy The paper that we released last week describes a city up on a forested plateau near Angkor. Here you can see the sandstone valley up top that they tried to carve into a reservoir. There's features all around & a canal leading over the cliff sending water down to quarries below...
@ephtracy ... with a temple (that we knew of) perched on the promontory overlooking the plains below where Angkor is.
