NeuroLiDAR: Adaptive Frame Rate Depth Sensing via Neuromorphic Event-LiDAR Fusion

LiDARs are widely used for 3D depth reconstruction, but their performance is often limited by inherent hardware constraints that impose trade-offs between range, spatial resolution, and frame rate. Many LiDAR systems typically operate at low frame rates (e.g., 5-10 Hz), prioritizing long-range sensing over responsiveness to rapid scene changes. We present NeuroLiDAR, an adaptive depth sensing framework that achieves effective frame rates of up to $\approx$66 Hz by fusing temporally sparse LiDAR data with temporally dense inputs from neuromorphic event cameras. NeuroLiDAR integrates two components: event-based keyframe detection and event-guided depth extrapolation, to dynamically adjust the sensing rate in response to scene dynamics. To evaluate our approach, we introduce ELiDAR, a dataset spanning outdoor and indoor scenarios, and show that NeuroLiDAR reduces depth reconstruction error by $\approx$29\% in RMSE while achieving adaptive frame rates between 27.8-47.3 Hz. Our code and dataset are available at https://github.com/darshanakgr/neurolidar.

Demo: RhythmEdge: Enabling Contactless Heart Rate Estimation on the Edge

In this demo paper, we design and prototype RhythmEdge, a low-cost, deep-learning-based contact-less system for regular HR monitoring applications. RhythmEdge benefits over existing approaches by facilitating contact-less nature, real-time/offline operation, inexpensive and available sensing components, and computing devices. Our RhythmEdge system is portable and easily deployable for reliable HR estimation in moderately controlled indoor or outdoor environments. RhythmEdge measures HR via detecting changes in blood volume from facial videos (Remote Photoplethysmography; rPPG) and provides instant assessment using off-the-shelf commercially available resource-constrained edge platforms and video cameras. We demonstrate the scalability, flexibility, and compatibility of the RhythmEdge by deploying it on three resource-constrained platforms of differing architectures (NVIDIA Jetson Nano, Google Coral Development Board, Raspberry Pi) and three heterogeneous cameras of differing sensitivity, resolution, properties (web camera, action camera, and DSLR). RhythmEdge further stores longitudinal cardiovascular information and provides instant notification to the users. We thoroughly test the prototype stability, latency, and feasibility for three edge computing platforms by profiling their runtime, memory, and power usage.

Experiences & Challenges with Server-Side WiFi Indoor Localization Using Existing Infrastructure

Real-world deployments of WiFi-based indoor localization in large public venues are few and far between as most state-of-the-art solutions require either client or infrastructure-side changes. Hence, even though high location accuracy is possible with these solutions, they are not practical due to cost and/or client adoption reasons. Majority of the public venues use commercial controller-managed WLAN solutions, %provided by Aruba, Cisco, etc., that neither allow client changes nor infrastructure changes. In fact, for such venues we have observed highly heterogeneous devices with very low adoption rates for client-side apps. In this paper, we present our experiences in deploying a scalable location system for such venues. We show that server-side localization is not trivial and present two unique challenges associated with this approach, namely Cardinality Mismatch and High Client Scan Latency. The "Mismatch" challenge results in a significant mismatch between the set of access points (APs) reporting a client in the offline and online phases, while the "Latency" challenge results in a low number of APs reporting data for any particular client. We collect three weeks of detailed ground truth data (~200 landmarks), from a WiFi setup that has been deployed for more than four years, to provide evidences for the extent and understanding the impact of these problems. Our analysis of real-world client devices reveal that the current trend for the clients is to reduce scans, thereby adversely impacting their localization accuracy. We analyze how localization is impacted when scans are minimal. We propose heuristics to alleviate reduction in the accuracy despite lesser scans. Besides the number of scans, we summarize the other challenges and pitfalls of real deployments which hamper the localization accuracy.

Inferring Accurate Bus Trajectories from Noisy Estimated Arrival Time Records

Urban commuting data has long been a vital source of understanding population mobility behaviour and has been widely adopted for various applications such as transport infrastructure planning and urban anomaly detection. While individual-specific transaction records (such as smart card (tap-in, tap-out) data or taxi trip records) hold a wealth of information, these are often private data available only to the service provider (e.g., taxicab operator). In this work, we explore the utility in harnessing publicly available, albeit noisy, transportation datasets, such as noisy "Estimated Time of Arrival" (ETA) records (commonly available to commuters through transit Apps or electronic signages). We first propose a framework to extract accurate individual bus trajectories from such ETA records, and present results from both a primary city (Singapore) and a secondary city (London) to validate the techniques. Finally, we quantify the upper bound on the spatiotemporal resolution, of the reconstructed trajectory outputs, achieved by our proposed technique.
