From my vantage point wrangling algos to extract 3D geometry from pointclouds - I really think this is a domain where ML can solve the missing pieces of the puzzle in the next 18 months.

The new tech will unlock a lot of value, but we need an opinionated investor to fund the engineering effort to get us there.

Funding is the bottleneck, not talent or fundamental science.

tl:dr We need a couple of visionary Angel Investors to fund these 3D Skunkworks projects and bring the real world onto the internet.
