Who would have ever guessed that parrots could have better manners than most people? In this mesmerizing scene, a line of vibrant, beautiful parrots calmly wait their turn to be fed. There’s no chaos, ...

TUM researchers have 3D printed a prototype wall façade that will provide shelter for wildlife in urban environments.

Participants in the annual Songbird Music School weekend proved one can’t have enough nests as the flock returned to the ...

Rockford is home to a lot of public art installations. This summer, a group of students is adding even more through the Rockford Area Arts Council’s SPARK Mosaic program. WNIJ’s Peter Medlin has the ...

We propose a new method for fusing LIDAR point cloud and camera-captured images in deep convolutional neural networks (CNN). The proposed method constructs a new layer called sparse non-homogeneous ...

3D object detectors based on LiDAR have been extensively used in autonomous and robotic systems. Efficient voxel-based models must downsample their feature space to reduce computation, which leads to ...
