BundleSDF: Neural 6-DoF Tracking and 3D Reconstruction of Unknown Objects

Demo

Why selected BundleSDF?

  • Near real-time (10Hz)
  • Lightweight neural implicit model "Neural Object Field"
  • Novel unknown dynamic object

How about map building with the idea of BundleSDF?

Settings of BundleSDF

  • Use RGBD camera
  • Assume rigid object
  • Require object segmentation mask for the first frame

2.1.3. Memory Pool

Memory Pool
  • Stores keyframes
  • Minimizes the long-term pose drift using past keyframes
  • Keyframe: Stores RGBD image and estimated pose

2.1.4. Pose Graph Optimization

Pose Graph Optimization
  • 1. Select K memory frames with the maximum viewing overlap
  • 2. Solve the entire pose graph optimization via the Gauss-Newton algorithm with iterative re-weighting
  • 3. Update both new keyframe and K memory frames

Efficient Ray Sampling & Hybrid SDF Modeling

Efficient Ray Sampling

Sample points only within a certain range from the surface of the model. Divide the space into 3 types:

  • Yellow: uncertain free space
  • Red: empty space
  • Blue: near-surface space

3. Metrics

6-DoF Pose Estimation

ADD(-S): Average Distance of the estimated pose to the ground truth pose

$\text{ADD}(\hat{T}, T) = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^N \min_{\hat{R}, \hat{t}} \| \hat{R} x_i + \hat{t} - (R x_i + t) \|_2$

$\text{ADD-S}(\hat{T}, T) = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^N \min_{\hat{R}, \hat{t}} \| \hat{R} x_i + \hat{t} - (R x_i + t) \|_2 + \min_{\hat{R}, \hat{t}} \| \hat{R}^{-1} x_i + \hat{t} - (R x_i + t) \|_2$

3D Reconstruction

Chamfer Distance: Calculate distance between the vertices of result mesh and the ground truth mesh

$\text{CD}(M, \hat{M}) = \frac{1}{|M|} \sum_{x \in M} \min_{y \in \hat{M}} \|x - y\|_2 + \frac{1}{|\hat{M}|} \sum_{y \in \hat{M}} \min_{x \in M} \|x - y\|_2$
