Differentiable version of the box3d_overlap function

[lioutasb]

🚀 Feature

It would be extremely useful to add gradient support for the box3d_overlap function which will allow being used as an objective function. I was wondering if there are plans to support this in the near future.

@lioutasb great to hear you are using this feature! We have been thinking about this but have not yet finalized our roadmap for 2022.

This would be really beneficial for my projects as well.

I would also like to have the box3d_overlap function implemented with support for gradient computation. Furthermore, I am willing to put effort to implement it on my own.

@nikhilaravi @gkioxari Is there any chance to get some help or supervision in implementing this feature?

@nikhilaravi @gkioxari Are there by any chance updates regarding this?
