E-RGB-D: Real-Time Event-Based Perception with Structured Light

The paper introduces E‑RGB‑D, a real‑time event‑based perception system that combines a Digital Light Processing projector with a monochrome event camera to produce RGB‑D data. By projecting structured light and capturing asynchronous brightness changes, the system can detect color and depth for each pixel, achieving a color detection speed of 1400 fps and a depth detection rate of 4 kHz. The approach enables frameless RGB‑D sensing and delivers colorful point clouds without compromising spatial resolution.

DeepIPCv3: Event-Aware Multi-Modal Sensor Fusion for Sudden Pedestrian Crossing Avoidance

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.

Multi-Modal Traffic Sign Detection with Semantic Attributes for Autonomous Driving

The paper introduces a multi‑modal traffic sign detection framework that fuses camera and LiDAR data using an Intensity‑Aware Deformable Fusion module to align retro‑reflective LiDAR cues with visual features. It also presents a dual motion‑model tracker to handle non‑linear perspective changes and a semantic attribute classification pipeline that estimates occlusion, readability, sign embeddedness, and road relevance. Evaluated on a dataset covering more than 60 countries and 2,500 hours of driving, the system achieves an Object Miss Ratio of 0.49% across 221,068 sequences, indicating strong global generalization for autonomous driving.

Recti-Q: Feature-Space Rectification for Out-of-Distribution-Robust Quantized Perception in Edge Robotics

arXiv:2607. 18540v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robotic perception pipelines increasingly rely on large vision backbones deployed on SWaP-constrained edge platforms, making post-training quantization (PTQ) attractive for real-time inference.
