ROSS: Radar Off-road Semantic Segmentation

Peng Jiang, Srikanth Saripalli

As the demand for autonomous navigation in off-road environments increases, the need for effective solutions to understand these surroundings becomes essential. In this study, we confront the inherent complexities of semantic segmentation in RADAR data for off-road scenarios. We present a novel pipeline that utilizes LIDAR data and an existing annotated off-road LIDAR dataset for generating RADAR labels, in which the RADAR data are represented as images. Validated with real-world datasets, our pragmatic approach underscores the potential of RADAR technology for navigation applications in off-road environments.
