We were featured in a set of ABC news articles exploring aspects of robot vacuum security: Radio piece "Robot vacuums spying on Australians", article "We hacked a robot vacuum...", and article "...robot vacuums collect photos and audio to train AI".

Welcome to our new team member, James Gray. James is a postdoctoral researcher working with ARIAM Hub member Trendspek on robotic vision for high-fidelity drone-based 3D reconstruction. Watch this space for more as his work develops!

A big welcome to our two latest team members, Jason Lai and Connor Langford, starting their PhDs in change detection and exoplanet detection. Watch this space for more as their work develops!

Closing 10th Jun Sydney time: 3-year Postdoctoral Research Associate in 3D reconstruction of reflective objects. Details at the University Job Site here.

ICRA 2024 in Yokohama was a blast, great to see such strong attendance from Australian robotics colleagues. If you missed us, here are the links to BuFF Burst Feature Finder (RA-L/ICRA), Adaptive Keyframe Selection for Online Iterative NeRF Construction (RoboNerF workshop), and Towards Event-Based Satellite Docking: A Photometrically Accurate Low-Earth Orbit Hardware Simulation (HERMES workshop).

We're excited to introduce TaCOS: Task-Specific Camera Optimisation with Simulation. We combine procedural environments with clever optimisers to design better cameras, supporting continuous, discrete, categorical & interdependent variables.

Our privacy-preserving camera was featured on @Channel9 news https://t.co/ZlmB4M3X24, featuring myself and Adam Taras @ak_taras @SIRISRobotics. This was a collaboration with Niko Suenderhauf @nikoSuenderhauf and Peter Corke @QUTRobotics. Project page: https://t.co/L4QPlYg212

Check out the latest collaboration between Adam Taras and myself from USyd and Niko Suenderhauf and Peter Corke from QUT: "Inherently privacy-preserving vision for trustworthy autonomous systems: Needs and solutions", accepted to the Journal of Responsible Technology. We argue for a class of cameras that are more like optical-analogue computers: they protect your privacy by never measuring images. Preprint, dataset, and a reconstruction challenge are at the project page here.

Still buzzing from #rvss2024 last week. Congrats to Robotic Imaging Lab member Bina Rajan and team for winning the workshop challenge! pic.twitter.com/tlcqFdDiT7

Two fully funded PhDs in underwater robotic imaging with the ARIAM research hub, details here. The two roles advertised here are part of a larger opportunity that will hire and bring together tens of PhD students and multiple Postdocs. For more on ARIAM, our partners, and opportunities to join the hub please watch this site and the ARIAM Research Hub website.

See you at ACRA 2022 in Brisbane next week! Adam Taras will be presenting our work on time of flight fields. What happens when you make a light field camera out of time of flight cameras? We show you can get significant gains in accuracy and robustness to specular reflection. Paper, source, and dataset are available here.
