…the need for: 3D visual perception, Increased robustness, and Reduced cost. Ultimately, to achieve truly intelligent autonomous behavior, navigation systems need to deliver human-level, 3D visual perception. For example, because they can detect texture and color, cameras are able to distinguish between the edge of a surface or line. This can create significant safety advantages for many types of robots…
