Where to hire Jetson developers?
I've ported https://github.com/ethz-asl/maplab/releases/tag/1.3 to the TK-1 and have some OpenCV experience with the Jetson family but no specific camera driver experience. Are you looking for a long term hire or just this effort?

DARPA SubT Challenge Final Results Announced
I haven't had a chance to look at the data in detail, but I assume you're talking about the flip-flopping of some clouds from one of the ANYmals? We use a centralized mapping framework called MapLab which tries to optimally align the maps of all robots and generate a single consistent map. Map optimization is totally out of my domain, but I suspect a few bad constraints caused the optimization to oscillate between two local minima. It gave the operator a heart attack at the time, but its a fairly common occurrence before the process is complete, and fortunately it all got worked out.
What are some alternatives?
