state-of-the-art works in either: i) classic LiDAR based perception
algorithms (e.g. spatial data structures, 3D point features
extraction, keypoint estimation, registration, reconstruction,
etc.) ; or ii) LiDAR related deep learning algorithms (e.g. 3D
Object Detection, Ground Plane Estimation, 3D Semantic
Segmentation, etc.). Knowledge and experience in both tracks would
be a merit.
- Proficient in C++, ability to write efficient, clean, and
