PlanarMesh: Building Compact 3D Meshes from LiDAR using Incremental Adaptive Resolution Reconstruction

IROS 2025

Building an online 3D LiDAR mapping system that produces a detailed surface reconstruction while remaining computationally efficient is a challenging task. In this paper, we present PlanarMesh, a novel incremental, mesh-based LiDAR reconstruction system that adaptively adjusts mesh resolution to ach

Seeing in the Dark: Benchmarking Egocentric 3D Vision with the Oxford Day-and-Night Dataset

NeurIPS 2025poster

We introduce Oxford Day-and-Night, a large-scale, egocentric dataset for novel view synthesis (NVS) and visual relocalisation under challenging lighting conditions. Existing datasets often lack crucial combinations of features such as ground-truth 3D geometry, wide-ranging lighting variation, and fu…

SiLVR: Scalable Lidar-Visual Reconstruction with Neural Radiance Fields for Robotic Inspection

ICRA 2024poster

We present a neural-field-based large-scale reconstruction system that fuses lidar and vision data to generate high-quality reconstructions that are geometrically accurate and capture photo-realistic textures. This system adapts the state-of-the-art neural radiance field (NeRF) representation to als…

3D Lidar Reconstruction with Probabilistic Depth Completion for Robotic Navigation

IROS 2022poster

Safe motion planning in robotics requires planning into space which has been verified to be free of obstacles. However, obtaining such environment representations using lidars is challenging by virtue of the sparsity of their depth measurements. We present a learning-aided 3D lidar reconstruction fr…
