My Fulbright Project will allow robotic platforms to make critical decisions in more complex environments with physically based models of light captured by their sensors. From urban cities to low-earth orbit, this will enable systems to bring together different sources of information under a common scene representation, enabling new capabilities and understanding.
Jack Naylor is a PhD candidate in robotic imaging at the University of Sydney’s Australian Centre for Robotics. His research develops radiance-based representations to enable robotic systems to navigate visually complex environments.
As a Fulbright Future Scholar, Jack will collaborate with Carnegie Mellon University’s Robotics Institute to unify data from multiple sensing modalities within these representations, enhancing robotic mapping capabilities.
