EPIC (Exploring on PoInt Clouds) is a lightweight LiDAR-based UAV exploration framework that directly exploits point cloud data to explore large-scale environments. Experimental results demonstrate that our framework achieves faster exploration while significantly reducing memory consumption. (Click the image to view the video)
