Editable 3D scene creation requires object instances and lights that can be inspected, moved, and imported into standard engines, yet existing single-image methods largely stop at room-scale geometry, baked/global illumination, or text-driven generation. We introduce Lumera (Light-aware Unified Engine-native Reconstruction and Assembly), a benchmark and reference pipeline for engine-native, light-aware 3D scene parsing from a single image.
arXiv:2608. 07579v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The AI City Challenge 2026 Track 1 evaluates multi-camera 3D perception in large indoor warehouses under a synthetic-to-real (Sim2Real) setting; depth is available only for training and validation, so inference is RGB-only.
arXiv:2604. 13416v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Advances in radiance fields have enabled photorealistic novel view synthesis.
arXiv:2502. 07531v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Controllable image-to-video (I2V) generation transforms a reference image into a coherent video guided by user-specified control signals.
arXiv:2607. 02561v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Consumer depth sensors such as the LiDAR scanner on recent iPhones provide metric range, but their useful range is short and their returns are sparse.
arXiv:2605. 10873v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recovering editable CAD programs from images or 3D observations is central to AI-assisted design, but progress is difficult to measure because existing evaluations are fragmented across datasets, modalities, and metrics.
arXiv:2607. 00491v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Benchmarks for vision-language models (VLMs) mostly test observational spatial reasoning: models describe relations already visible in the input.
arXiv:2607. 02921v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantitative 3D spatial reasoning from egocentric RGB-D video is a critical capability for next-generation wearable assistants.
arXiv:2604. 05182v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce the Large Sparse Reconstruction Model to study how scaling transformer context windows affects feed-forward 3D reconstruction.
Projector-camera (ProCams) systems achieve active scene perception and controllable appearance manipulation via structured illumination, serving as a core infrastructure for spatial augmented reality, projection mapping, and surface reflectance acquisition. Existing inverse-rendering methods for ProCams deliver high-fidelity results but rely on time-consuming per-scene optimization, while mainstream feed-forward 3D reconstruction models produce baked appearance that cannot adapt to spatially varying projector illumination.
arXiv:2606. 22574v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While synthetic data generation resolves the manual labeling bottleneck in computer vision, minimizing the syn-to-real domain gap requires optimizing rendering variables.
arXiv:2608. 06075v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Commercial vision-language models are reshaping computer vision, with visual priors broad enough to rival task-specific systems.
arXiv:2607. 08970v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent benchmarks for VLMs largely assess single- or limited-view perception, leaving untested the core cognitive ability to integrate observations across viewpoints into a coherent, world-centric (allocentric) 3D mental model.
