NVIDIA's collection of GPU-accelerated Lidar AI inference solutions for autonomous driving, including optimized implementations of PointPillars, CenterPoint, and BEVFusion networks built on CUDA and TensorRT. It also ships supporting libraries such as cuPCL, 3D SparseConvolution, YUV2RGB, and cuOSD for point cloud processing and visualization.
Use cases
- run lidar 3d object detection on gpu with pointpillars
- deploy bevfusion camera-lidar fusion inference with tensorrt
- accelerate centerpoint inference with cuda and int8 quantization
- export 3d sparse convolution backbone from onnx for fast inference
- voxelize lidar point clouds with cuda kernels
- convert yuv camera frames to rgb on gpu for sensor fusion pipelines
- draw bounding boxes on lidar point cloud visualizations with cuosd
- quantize mmdet3d spconv models for edge deployment
When to choose
- you need production-grade, GPU-accelerated inference for lidar-based 3D detection networks like PointPillars, CenterPoint, or BEVFusion
- you are deploying perception pipelines on NVIDIA GPUs or Jetson edge devices and want TensorRT/CUDA optimization
- you need low-latency voxelization, NMS, or preprocessing kernels implemented in CUDA
- you want quantization (PTQ/QAT) workflows for sparse convolution lidar backbones
When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose deep learning framework rather than lidar-specific inference solutions
- your hardware is not NVIDIA CUDA-capable
- you want training-first tooling with minimal inference focus (though some training support exists, the project centers on deployment)
- you need a plug-and-play solution without C++/CUDA integration effort
