Apple's Machine Learning Research wing has developed a foundational AI model "for zero-shot metric monocular depth estimation." Depth Pro enables high-speed generation of detailed 3D depth maps from a ...

ARCore tools let you create depth maps without lidar on Android phones, and the tools may be extending to more apps. I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech, VR/AR, ...

Depth map super-resolution techniques aim to enhance the spatial resolution of depth images captured by standard sensors, thereby bridging the gap between low-resolution data and the demand for ...

Ever look out at a pond, stream, or river, and wonder how deep it is? For large bodies of water that are considered navigable, it’s easy enough to pull up a chart and find out. But what if there’s no ...

Researchers in South Korea have developed an ultra-small, ultra-thin LiDAR device that splits a single laser beam into 10,000 points covering an unprecedented 180-degree field of view. It's capable of ...

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has been working to collect new mapping data on Lake Superior since 2020. This survey is part of a large effort to update the mapping of the ...

LDM3D is industry’s first generative AI model to deliver depth mapping. It has the potential to revolutionize content creation, metaverse and digital experiences. What’s New: Intel Labs, in ...

Hydrographic maps reveal subsurface features with the potential to hold fish, the degree to which largely depends on the ...
