Daily CVPR - Thursday

If you ask why the company is called TuSimple , this must have something to do with “ Technology made simple ”. What they do is ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) , autonomous driving, and web-scale image recognition applications. We asked them about that and Amanda Song explained that their ADAS/autonomous driving system incorporates state-of-the-art modules for multi-class object detection, lane detection, depth estimation, and scene analysis. Optimized for complex road conditions in cluttered urban scenes, this technology can accurately assess driving risks from pedestrian, bicycle, motorcycle, cars, and other types of obstacles . The solution being 100% vision-based, this means dramatic reduction in hardware cost, comparing to today’s LiDAR-based perception solutions.
