Zod dataloader compatible with MMDetection3D

[yanconglin]

Hi, ZOD team,

I wonder if there is an official dataloader compatible with MMDetection3D? I would like to train a Centerpoint Model on ZOD, and test its performance when a denser lidar is available (128 beams).
Thank you.

We agree that this would be very useful, and plan to add official support for mmdet3d (either upstream or as a fork/plugin). Unfortunately we do not have an ETA yet.

If I may, I'd like to mention the library I recently open-sourced:
https://github.com/CEA-LIST/tri3d

ZOD frames is supported along with KITTI, Nuscenes and Waymo. It is designed to provide easy access to the 'raw' data in the sense that it is up to you to write a torch Dataset around it. That last step should be fairly easy though, check out the tutorial.
