Pfeiffer-Poensgen: Hier sehe ich, was Unis zu bieten haben!
Auf Ihrer NRW-Forschungsreise hat Wissenschaftsministerin Isabel Pfeiffer-Poensgen die Universität Bonn besucht. Auf dem Campus Klein-Altendorf informierte sie sich unter anderem über die Forschung an Nutzpflanzen als Baustoffalternative. Außerdem besuchte sie den Exzellenzcluster PhenoRob, der an nachhaltiger Pflanzenproduktion forscht. Mit dem Exzellenzcluster Bonn Center for Dependency and Slavery Studies stand außerdem ein Cluster aus den Geisteswissenschaften im Mittelpunkt, der einen neuen Zugang zur Sklaverei- und Abhängigkeitsforschung eröffnet.

This is PhenoRob: Cluster of Excellence for Robotics & Phenotyping for Sustainable Crop Production
Achieving sustainable crop production with limited resources is a task of immense proportions. In order to achieve this, the University of Bonn together with Forschungszentrum Jülich conducts research in the Cluster of Excellence “PhenoRob – Robotics and Phenotyping for Sustainable Crop Production” to develop methods and new technologies that observe, analyze, better understand and specifically treat plants. Our research focuses on improving the fundamental understanding of all relevant parameters like plant growth, soil, biodiversity, or atmosphere. PhenoRob, the only Cluster of Excellence in agriculture in Germany, aims at addressing these issues: Change crop production by optimizing breeding and farming management using new technologies.

ICCV’19: SemanticKITTI: A Dataset for Semantic Scene Understanding of LiDAR Sequences, Behley et al.
With SemanticKITTI, we release a large dataset to propel research on laser-based semantic segmentation. We annotated all sequences of the KITTI Vision Odometry Benchmark and provide dense point-wise annotations for the complete 360 deg field-of-view of the employed automotive LiDAR. We propose three benchmark tasks based on this dataset: (i) semantic segmentation of point clouds using a single scan, (ii) semantic segmentation using sequences comprised of multiple past scans, and (iii) semantic scene completion, which requires to anticipate the semantic scene in the future. We provide baseline experiments and show that there is a need for more sophisticated models to efficiently tackle these tasks. See: http://semantic-kitti.org J. Behley, M. Garbade, A. Milioto, J.

ICRA’18: Flexible Multi-Cue Photometric Point Cloud Registration by Della Corte & Bogoslavskyi
MPR: A General Framework for Flexible Multi-Cue Photometric Point Cloud Registration by Bartolomeo Della Corte, Igor Bogoslavskyi, Cyrill Stachniss, Giorgio Grisetti ICRA 2018 PDF: https://arxiv.org/abs/1709.05945 Code:https://gitlab.com/srrg-software/srrg_mpr Abstract: The ability to build maps is a key functionality for the majority of mobile robots. A central ingredient to most mapping systems is the registration or alignment of the recorded sensor data. In this paper, we present a general methodology for photometric registration that can deal with multiple different cues. We provide examples for registering RGBD as well as 3D LIDAR data. In contrast to popular point cloud registration approaches such as ICP our method does not rely on explicit data association and exploits multiple modalities such as raw range and image data streams. Color, depth, and normal information are handled in an uniform manner and the registration is obtained by minimizing the pixel-wise difference between two multi-channel images. We developed a flexible and general framework and implemented our approach inside that framework. We also released our implementation as open source C++ code. The experiments show that our approach allows for an accurate registration of the sensor data without requiring an explicit data association or model-specific adaptations to datasets or sensors. Our approach exploits the different cues in a natural and consistent way and the registration can be done at framerate for a typical range or imaging sensor.
