Spatiotemporal Flux Probing for Single-Photon Videography

Jerry Yan, Matteo Forlivesi, Bowen Tan +3

We address the problem of recovering high-speed videos from dynamic scenes under extreme photon sparsity. Existing methods rely on aggregating photon detections in local spatiotemp…

Imaging Hidden Objects with Consumer LiDAR via Motion Induced Sampling

Siddharth Somasundaram, Aaron Young, Akshat Dave +2

LiDARs are being increasingly deployed for consumer imaging in handheld, wearable, and robotic applications. These sensors can capture the time-of-flight of light at picosecond res…

Shoot-Bounce-3D: Single-Shot Occlusion-Aware 3D from Lidar by Decomposing Two-Bounce Light

Tzofi Klinghoffer, Siddharth Somasundaram, Xiaoyu Xiang +5

3D scene reconstruction from a single measurement is challenging, especially in the presence of occluded regions and specular materials, such as mirrors. We address these challenge…

Blurred LiDAR for Sharper 3D: Robust Handheld 3D Scanning with Diffuse LiDAR and RGB

Nikhil Behari, Aaron Young, Siddharth Somasundaram +3

3D surface reconstruction is essential across applications of virtual reality, robotics, and mobile scanning. However, RGB-based reconstruction often fails in low-texture, low-ligh…

Event Cameras Meet SPADs for High-Speed, Low-Bandwidth Imaging

Manasi Muglikar, Siddharth Somasundaram, Akshat Dave +3

Traditional cameras face a trade-off between low-light performance and high-speed imaging: longer exposure times to capture sufficient light results in motion blur, whereas shorter…

PlatoNeRF: 3D Reconstruction in Plato's Cave via Single-View Two-Bounce Lidar

Tzofi Klinghoffer, Xiaoyu Xiang, Siddharth Somasundaram +4

3D reconstruction from a single-view is challenging because of the ambiguity from monocular cues and lack of information about occluded regions. Neural radiance fields (NeRF), whil…

Role of Transients in Two-Bounce Non-Line-of-Sight Imaging

Siddharth Somasundaram, Akshat Dave, Connor Henley +2

The goal of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging is to image objects occluded from the camera's field of view using multiply scattered light. Recent works have demonstrated the feasibi…

Detection and Mapping of Specular Surfaces Using Multibounce Lidar Returns

Connor Henley, Siddharth Somasundaram, Joseph Hollmann +1

We propose methods that use specular, multibounce lidar returns to detect and map specular surfaces that might be invisible to conventional lidar systems that rely on direct, singl…

Physics vs. Learned Priors: Rethinking Camera and Algorithm Design for Task-Specific Imaging

Tzofi Klinghoffer, Siddharth Somasundaram, Kushagra Tiwary +1

Cameras were originally designed using physics-based heuristics to capture aesthetic images. In recent years, there has been a transformation in camera design from being purely phy…
