Monocular depth estimation is a fundamental prerequisite for 3D reconstruction and autonomous navigation in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). In practical deployments, UAVs operate under highly dynamic camera poses characterized by continuous variations in height, pitch, roll, and field of view (FOV).

arXiv:2606. 20045v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: UAV Vision-Language Navigation (UAV-VLN) is typically formulated as a holistic search-and-reach problem, where long-range target discovery and final target approach are optimized and evaluated jointly.

UAV Vision-Language Navigation (UAV-VLN) is typically formulated as a holistic search-and-reach problem, where long-range target discovery and final target approach are optimized and evaluated jointly. This formulation makes it difficult to assess a critical capability of aerial embodied agents, namely whether a UAV can accurately ground a visible target and translate vision-language evidence into precise 3D motion once the target enters its field of view.
arXiv:2607. 23565v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Safe quadrotor navigation in cluttered and dynamic environments depends not only on instantaneous geometric perception, but more critically on anticipating collision risks induced by relative motion.

arXiv:2602. 15875v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Current Visual-Language Navigation (VLN) methodologies face a trade-off between semantic understanding and control precision.

arXiv:2606. 00104v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models are increasingly used to drive autonomous systems, yet existing approaches either keep the model in a tight control loop, raising latency and hallucination risk, or compile natural language into opaque end-to-end policies that are hard to explain, constraint and require domain-specific datasets and fine-tuning.

arXiv:2608. 07557v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language Navigation for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV-VLN) requires rapid and reactive control in complex 3D environments.

arXiv:2607. 07737v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: GNSS-denied unmanned aerial vehicles require occasional absolute position fixes to bound the drift of visual-inertial odometry.

arXiv:2606. 31919v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Zero-shot Object Goal Navigation (ZSON) with RGB-only perception poses a fundamental challenge for embodied agents, as the absence of explicit depth information introduces severe physical uncertainty and semantic-physical misalignment.

arXiv:2606. 01277v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current end-to-end autonomous driving systems predominantly rely on frame-based sensors, which suffer from inherent perception latency and motion blur during highly dynamic encounters, specifically sudden pedestrian crossings.
