The problem is not a lack of funds. The problem is bureaucracy and a lack of startup infrastructure. My feeling is that the people in charge have absolutely no effing clue about how to most efficiently deploy this money so they will do what

As far as I know detection SNR goes way down with longer wavelengths. I think luminartech.com claims that they have specific IP to make this work, but apparently it's a hard problem, otherwise everybody would be doing it already.

This. Through my work (shameless plug: www.dotproduct3d.com) I've assessed a fair number of "Time of Flight" 3D sensors (which also use flashes of IR light -- but aren't really time-of-flight but that's another stor

Andrew Mason is still worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Sure, he was fired from his job, but I wouldn't exactly call that a "fall". It's not like they took away his equity in the company.

Why are programming environments still so primitive? In different ways, Mathematica, Genera, and Smalltalk put almost every other programming environment to shame. Atom, Sublime Edit, and Visual Studio Code are neat, but they do not repres

While Google and Amazon both have their ethical problems and serious anti-trust issues, Facebook is in a league of its own. Maybe, but at least Facebook doesn't actively try to manipulate you into believing that they're the &quo

Very cool stuff. Are you doing anything special for 3D trajectory estimation (any visual tracking / SLAM)? Or is it just GPS or whatever DJI puts in? Also, would it help with defect detection and classification if you had LiDAR data as

This exactly. Or looked at it the other way: If two people have feelings for each other but suppress resulting actions due to company policy, how would that not influence decision making?

Ok, I get the patent part. But what I was mostly interested in is how you see CRADAs help companies make money. To me CRADAs just sound like a vehicle to share R&D costs, which, in most companies, aren't dominating the budget. So t
