Seriously impressive demo by Boston Dynamics showing full body manipulation. This shows interaction with a complex environment rather than treating it as a disturbance like in all the robot dance videos.

Yesterday, our latest BOP Challenge report on model-based and model-free object pose estimation just received the Best Paper Award at the Computer Vision for Mixed Reality CVPR'25 Workshop :)

10th International Workshop on Recovering 6D Object Pose (R6D)

Therefore, I'm quite excited to have docker-based robot grasping evaluations of SoTA pose detection algorithms from BOP!

The BOP challenge 2025 is still open for submissions. Present your results at our ICCV 2025 R6D workshop in Hawaii.

6D pose detection metrics and grasp success rates strongly correlate, but they are not identical. Average Precision is a great threshold-free detection metric, but grasp success is often determined by the highest confident target object pose.

BOP: Benchmark for 6D Object Pose Estimation

At 4pm we will also give a talk on the early-bird results of the BOP challenge that now contains the same Industrial Plenoptic dataset and compare to the robotic BPC challenge (bpc.opencv.org).

CVPR 2025 Workshop - Perception for Industrial Robotics Automation (PIRA)

If you are at #CVPR_2025 today and into robotics, join our Workshop on Perception for Industrial Robotics Automation. We present the results of a joint pose estimation and grasping challenge on real robots, organized with #OpenCV and #Intrinsic, and announce 60k$ in prices.

Does the recent progress in 3D vision transfer to challenging real-world problems in robotics and XR?

Proof it and participate in the BOP challenge 2025 featuring real-world datasets and tasks. bop.felk.cvut.cz/challenges/

In collaboration with Intrinsic and OpenCV we are running a new pose estimation + bin picking challenge that is decided by real robot grasp metrics. 🦾

Take the chance to bring your methods alive, win generous prices and present your approach at CVPR'25. πŸ†

I'm still not used to generating realistic 4K videos in 1-2 minutes.. Glitches occur less frequently and physics are often imitated impressively well. #Veo2

1/ Excited to share that our latest work from Intrinsic will be presented as a paper at SIGGRAPH Asia 2024! πŸŽ‰

We’ve developed a plenoptic 3D vision system that addresses a key challenge in industrial robotics: providing robots reliable 3D input data. πŸ§΅β¬‡οΈ

I'm open for new ways, like OpenReview on every arxiv paper with a community that creates incentives to collectively review all of them.

Kaggle, Twitter, Discord and Github are great for mainstream and applied topics. But attention is not infinite and not fairly distributed. Peer review is not perfect but it ensures >0 closer looks on every idea, i.e. efficiently distributed attention.
