iOSPointMapper is a mobile app that performs real‑time, privacy‑conscious sidewalk mapping using on‑device semantic segmentation, LiDAR depth estimation, and fused GPS/IMU data on recent iPhones and iPads. It detects and localizes sidewalk‑relevant features such as traffic signs, traffic lights, and poles, and includes a user‑guided annotation interface for validating outputs before submission. The anonymized data is transmitted to the Transportation Data Exchange Initiative (TDEI), where it integrates with broader multimodal transportation datasets, and evaluations show the app’s potential for enhanced pedestrian mapping.

arXiv:2606. 07233v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LiDAR-based 3D Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) typically relies solely on geometric information, which is often insufficient to distinguish between targets during prolonged occlusions or in crowded human-populated environments.

Occupancy prediction at voxel-level granularity is essential for safe robotic navigation and interaction in complex environments. Existing occupancy datasets, however, are predominantly designed for autonomous driving with vehicle-centric biases -- forward-facing cameras, far-field geometry, and static road priors -- limiting their applicability to embodied humanoid perception.

Indoor visual relocalization plays a critical role in emerging spatial and embodied AI applications. However, prior research was predominantly devoted to low-level vision schemes, struggling to perceive scene semantics and compositions, which limits both interpretability and applicability.
TAPVid-MV is a new benchmark for tracking any point in 3D across multiple synchronized camera views. It comprises 284 sequences, 1,142 calibrated camera streams, and 109,769 point tracks, covering indoor and outdoor domains and derived from various modalities such as depth, LiDAR, SLAM, and simulation. The dataset is visually verified, and evaluation shows that current multi‑view trackers do not consistently outperform monocular trackers, highlighting geometry recovery as a key bottleneck.

VoxelFix is a graph‑based post‑hoc semantic correction method that refines voxel labels in completed 3D voxel maps while preserving their geometry and occupancy. It learns to correct errors by exploiting local geometry and neighboring semantic information, using training pairs generated by corrupting annotated maps with class confusions from upstream perception pipelines. Experiments on OccuFly maps show consistent improvements of 4.23–5.00 percentage points in mIoU, especially for tree, roof, and wall classes, and the method generalizes to out‑of‑distribution aerial scenes.
