OpenPCDet is a PyTorch-based open-source toolbox for LiDAR-based 3D object detection. It provides official implementations of models like PointRCNN, PV-RCNN, Voxel R-CNN, MPPNet, and BEVFusion, with support for datasets such as Waymo, NuScenes, and Argoverse2.

Use cases

• train a 3D object detection model on LiDAR point clouds
• run 3D detection on Waymo or NuScenes datasets
• reproduce PV-RCNN or Voxel R-CNN research results
• fuse camera and LiDAR data with BEVFusion
• benchmark 3D detectors for autonomous driving
• deploy real-time LiDAR detection with TensorRT

When to choose

• you need state-of-the-art LiDAR 3D detection models in PyTorch
• you are doing autonomous driving perception research
• you want official implementations of PointRCNN, PV-RCNN, or MPPNet
• you need multi-modal (LiDAR + camera) detection support

When to avoid

• you need 2D image-only object detection
• you work outside Python/PyTorch ecosystems
• you need a production inference engine rather than a research toolbox
• you lack a GPU, since training requires significant compute
