A Paradigm Shift in High-Resolution Depth Estimation Using SPAD-Based LiDAR Histograms: From Signal Filtering to Lightweight Similarity Learning
AAAI 2026technical
Accurate and efficient depth estimation from time-of-flight (ToF) LiDAR is essential for autonomous systems operating in real-world environments. However, traditional histogram-based depth estimation (HBDE) algorithms face fundamental limitations in balancing depth performance and computational cost
