Abstract
Examples disclosed herein may involve (i) obtaining 2D image data and 3D sensor data that is representative of an area, (ii) identifying a first set of pixels associated with ephemeral objects detected in the area and a second set of pixels associated with non-ephemeral objects detected in the area, (iii) identifying a first set of ephemeral 3D data points associated with the detected ephemeral objects and a second set of non-ephemeral 3D data points associated with the detected non-ephemeral objects, (iv) mapping the first and second sets of 3D data points to a grid of voxels associated with the area, (v) making a determination that one or more voxels in the grid each contain a threshold extent of ephemeral data points, and (vi) based at least in part on the determination, filtering the 3D sensor data to remove the 3D data points contained within the one or more voxels.
