Is it possible to reconstruct 3D geometry from measurements of a miniature time-of-flight proximity sensor? Yes! I'm excited to share our CVPR 2024 paper, "Towards 3D Vision with Low-Cost Single-Photon Cameras"

@matthen2 Very cool. But sounds more like a stroke than an optical illusion…

@sidartsoma Great work, congrats Sid!

@jon_barron I agree on principle, but how is a grad student going to pay for that much API usage? I don’t know of any grad programs that provide credits / Claude code or similar to their grad students.

📜New paper: Recovering Parametric Scenes from Very Few Time-of-Flight Pixels. To appear at ICCV 2025.

We recover 3D parametric scenes (e.g. 6D object pose, human hand pose) from very few (8-15) distributed 3D pixels.

This approach has applications anywhere that benefits from low-cost, lightweight sensing, like wearables, mobile devices, and robotics. We hope this work will inspire further development in this direction!

@dopenessmaxxer @jayparsons I was too https://t.co/XBSdmLh5MJ

@jayparsons I was dying to know which dot was which so I did some searching, and found this plot with some labels. Hunstville, AL! I thought Austin would be further right, but given it's so large already it makes sense.

@Michael_J_Black Is the code available yet?

@ZGojcic Big fan of NFL and other works from your team. Applied and emailed :)
