Stay close to the current literature on 3D scene representation for navigation — online navigation-mesh construction from streaming point clouds, learned elevation/traversability mapping, topologically-grounded navigation representations — and translate promising ideas into deployable systems. We bring deep experience from organizations such as DeepMind, NASA JPL, Boston Dynamics, NVIDIA, Amazon, Tesla Autopilot, Cruise, Zoox, Toyota Research Institute, and SpaceX, along with a track record of field deployments and strong performance in DARPA challenge segments.
