Learning Long-Range Perception Using Self-Supervision From Short-Range Sensors and Odometry

Mirko Nava

We introduce a general self-supervised approach to predict the future outputs of a short-range sensor (such as a proximity sensor) given the current outputs of a long-range sensor (such as a camera). We assume that the former is directly related to some pi ...

Cascaded amplifying circuits enable ultrasensitive cellular sensors for toxic metals

Sebastian Maerkl, Francesca Volpetti, Ekaterina Emilova Petrova

Cell-based biosensors have great potential to detect various toxic and pathogenic contaminants in aqueous environments. However, frequently they cannot meet practical requirements due to insufficient sensing performance. To address this issue, we investiga ...

Learning an event sequence embedding for event-based deep stereo

François Fleuret, Stepan Tulyakov, Michael Hirsch

Today, a frame-based camera is the sensor of choice for machine vision applications. However, these cameras, originally developed for acquisition of static images rather than for sensing of dynamic uncontrolled visual environments, suffer from high power c ...
