BALTIC: A Benchmark and Cross-Domain Strategy for 3D Reconstruction Across Air and Underwater Domains Under Varying Illumination
Michele Grimaldi, David Nakath, Oscar Pizarro +3
Robust 3D reconstruction across varying environmental conditions remains a critical challenge for robotic perception, particularly when transitioning between air and water. To addr…
Optical Ocean Recipes: Creating Realistic Datasets to Facilitate Underwater Vision Research
Patricia Schöntag, David Nakath, Judith Fischer +2
The development and evaluation of machine vision in underwater environments remains challenging, often relying on trial-and-error-based testing tailored to specific applications. T…
Investigation of the Challenges of Underwater-Visual-Monocular-SLAM
Michele Grimaldi, David Nakath, Mengkun She +1
In this paper, we present a comprehensive investigation of the challenges of Monocular Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (vSLAM) methods for underwater robots. While sig…
Relative Illumination Fields: Learning Medium and Light Independent Underwater Scenes
Mengkun She, Felix Seegräber, David Nakath +2
We address the challenge of constructing a consistent and photorealistic Neural Radiance Field in inhomogeneously illuminated, scattering environments with unknown, co-moving light…
