Dive into deep learning to train a 3D object detector using labeled lidar data. Learn how to organize point cloud and label data for deep learning and how to augment your data to create a more robust detector. Then, explore the different options and information needed when creating and training a neural network, using a PointPillars network as an example. Finally, see how to use your trained 3D object detector and save it for later use or sharing.
