Streaming reconstruction of Free-Viewpoint Videos (FVVs) supports immersive Internet of Things (IoT) services, such as telepresence and digital twin visualization. Existing methods suffer from high per-frame optimization time and large storage footprints, limiting deployment on resource-constrained Edge-IoT devices.

EgoSurg is a framework that reconstructs dynamic operating room scenes from sparse wall‑mounted stereo video and renders arbitrary, role‑specific egocentric views without instrumenting personnel. It builds a per‑timestamp 3D Gaussian Splatting representation using scale‑aware stereo depth and refines it with an image‑conditioned diffusion model to correct artifacts from limited camera coverage, crowding, and occlusion. Evaluations on real robotic pulmonology procedures and simulated sessions show consistent near‑field reconstruction fidelity (PSNR 26.8 dB, SSIM 0.895) and synthesized egocentric view quality (PSNR 17.8 dB, SSIM 0.766) across workflow phases and hospital sites, with case studies demonstrating applications such as sterile field violation adjudication, role‑specific replay, and counterfactual personnel positioning.

The unprecedented growth of computer vision applications, such as surveillance systems and social media, raises security and visual privacy concerns, especially when data is stored on cloud servers. Image obfuscation offers a way to preserve visual privacy while maintaining an adequate level of usability; thus, it has been a topic of great interest in recent years.
