We visited MDA in Brampton, Ontario today for the 2016 Space Vision and Advanced Robotics Workshop. Jacob presented his work on entropy-based extrinsic sensor calibration, while Valentin talked about first responder localization using foot-mounted IMUs. We took home Second Prize (space pens!) in MDA’s Best Demo competition!

“Infrastructure-free First Responder Localization” won Second Prize in the Best Demo competition!

“Extrinsic Calibration of 2D Lidars Through Entropy Minimization”
