Stixel Navigation

Abstract: Stixels are an intermediate stereo representation for the world. The basic version models the world as sticks rising from the ground plane, which makes it a potentially lossy representation (overhanging or floating obstacles might be missed). As an intermediate representation, it can be used for ego-centric navigation.

More details will be forthcoming.1
