Hot take: the "LiDAR vs camera" debate isn't really about sensors. It's about how much you trust an AI to infer depth correctly at 120 km/h.

I am very happy to announce our talk titled "EasyNav: An open-source framework for navigating everywhere" has been accepted for #ROSCon2026 🚀🥳

With Juan S. Cely and all the #EasyNav Team at @IntellRobotLabs

We obsess over #LiDAR sensor resolution in #self-driving cars. But a "perfect" point cloud captured from a moving vehicle is already wrong before you process a single point. Sometimes the upgrade isn't hardware — it's correcting for time and motion.

Looking back at my already published blog on Medium, I thought of sharing a general idea of #KalmanFilter to help people understand what it is actually doing. Check it out:

Most Engineers Use the Kalman Filter. Only Few Understand What It's Actually Doing.

A few weeks ago, I published a blog where I showed a very simple and basic C++ implementation of a Kalman filter along with two plots, and a confession that I ended up calling Python from C++ anyway.

Hi #ROS2 devs, introducing ROSMAN (ROS2 Manager) - an interface that allows you to control your nodes via a UI that runs on your localhost. It uses #FastAPI on the backend and a simple web frontend, with #Python in the backend.

I've kept it free and open source, so feel free to customize it, use it and do share your feedback. :)

AI - a tool for the wise; a weapon of self-destruction for the naive.

The concept you'll find in almost all of the #selfdrivingcars - Kalman Filter.
I just published The Simplest Kalman Filter You’ll Ever See (And It’s in #C++)

The Simplest Kalman Filter You’ll Ever See (And It’s in C++)

If you’ve worked with sensors, robotics, or anything that moves and needs to know its position, someone has thrown the words “Kalman…

Now that I have Prism running also in my raspberry pi, time to step up. Finally got the stone of my home server rolling! #homelab #homeserver #selfhosting

Rolling out new feature! #Prism now allows sharing images and GIFs via the interface. Not familiar with Prism? Know more about the self-hosted app on: https://https://github.com/cmodi306/prism-app
