Introducing MASt3R-SLAM, the first real-time monocular dense SLAM with MASt3R as a foundation. Easy to use like DUSt3R/MASt3R, from an uncalibrated RGB video it recovers accurate, globally consistent poses & a dense map. With @eric_dexheimer*, @AjdDavison (*Equal Contribution)

🚀 Excited to share CausNVS: Autoregressive Multi-view Diffusion for Flexible 3D Novel View Synthesis! Let’s recon 3D world generatively. CausNVS handles any number of input views, synthesizes novel views autoregressively, enables interactive streaming and flexible N-to-M NVS.

Well done to Riku and @eric_dexheimer on Best Demo Honourable Mention for MASt3R-SLAM at #CVPR2025. That's 3 best demo awards in the past 2 years at CVPR from our lab! (Gaussian Splatting SLAM won Best Demo in 2024 and SuperPrimitive got Honourable Mention). #DemosNotTables
We (with @eric_dexheimer) will be demoing MASt3R-SLAM @CVPR today 16:00-18:00, ExHall B, 9 Come and see the limits of our real-time monocular dense SLAM! We’ll also be presenting our poster #83 on Sat 14th from 17:00-19:00. See you soon!

Visual SLAM has made major success in static scenes — now let’s explore the dynamic world we live in! At #CVPR2025, we introduce 4DTAM, 4D Tracking & Mapping using dynamic surface Gaussians optimized through diff. rendering. muskie82.github.io/4dtam/ w/ @BaeGwangbin @AjdDavison

We’ve had fun testing the limits of MASt3R-SLAM on in-the-wild videos. Here’s the drone video of a Minnesota bowling alley that we’ve always wanted to reconstruct! Different scene scales, dynamic objects, specular surfaces, and fast motion.

For robustness, MASt3R-SLAM performs relocalisation allowing it to handle the kidnapped robot problem. As a purely monocular SLAM, it loses track when the camera’s view is obstructed, but as soon as the view is unblocked, it immediately relocalises and resumes mapping.

We'll be presenting "Distributed Simultaneous Localisation and Auto-Calibration using GBP" at #IROS2024 We show that distributed GBP can be effectively used to localise and auto-calibrate many robots. Please come to our presentation (Wed 17:30 Room 11) if you're around!

COMO will be presented as an 𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐥 at #ECCV2024! Also come see the 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨 of our compact 3D representation for real-time monocular SLAM Oral: Session 2C at 1:40 PM on Tue 1 Oct Poster: #181 at 4:30-6:30 PM on Tue 1 Oct Demo: Thurs 3 Oct AM edexheim.github.io/como/
How can we infer 3D-consistent poses and dense geometry in real-time given only RGB images? 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗢 decodes dense geometry from a compact and optimizable set of 3D anchor points to enforce 3D consistency. Project page: edexheim.github.io/como/ Work with @AjdDavison 1/n

Realtime, live interaction is what we enjoy most for SLAM research🙂 Check out Gaussian Splatting SLAM (Highlight) demo and poster in #CVPR! We (w/ @rmurai0610) show challenging monocular setup, and of course stereo/rgbd too. Thu, Arch 4 Demo: 10:30~17:00 (CDE #12), Poster: 17:15~ (A-E #332) rmurai.co.uk/projects/Gaussi…
Our CVPR paper "Gaussian Splatting SLAM" is selected as a highlight! We just released the speed-up version of the code. github.com/muskie82/MonoGS/t… This week we (@rmurai0610, @AjdDavison) are in ICRA for a live demo (EXPO) and a spotlight talk (@robo_nerf) of the method. See you!
