Understanding the world from multiple perspectives is essential for intelligent systems operating together, where segmenting common objects across different views remains an open problem. We introduce a new approach that re-defines cross-image segmentation by treating it as a mask matching task. Our method consists of: (1) A Mask-Context Encoder that pools dense DINOv2 semantic features to obtain discriminative object-level representations from FastSAM mask candidates, (2) an Ego$\leftrightarrow$Exo Cross-Attention that fuses multi-perspective observations, (3) a Mask Matching contrastive loss that aligns cross-view features in a shared latent space, and (4) a Hard Negative Adjacent Mining strategy to encourage the model to better differentiate between nearby objects. O-MaMa achieves the state of the art in the Ego-Exo4D Correspondences benchmark, obtaining relative gains of +22% and +76% in the Ego2Exo and Exo2Ego IoU against the official challenge baselines, and a +13% and +6% compared with the SOTA with 1% of the training parameters.

This paper introduces an approach to simultaneously match and recover 3D people from multiple calibrated cameras. To this end, we present an affinity measure between 2D detections across different views that enforces an uncertainty geometric consistency. This similarity is then exploited by a novel multi-view matching algorithm to cluster the detections, being robust against partial observations as well as bad detections and without assuming any prior about the number of people in the scene. After that, the multi-view correspondences are used in order to efficiently infer the 3D pose of each body by means of a 3D pictorial structure model in combination with physico-geometric constraints. Our algorithm is thoroughly evaluated on challenging scenarios where several human bodies are performing different activities which involve complex motions, producing large occlusions in some views and noisy observations. We outperform state-of-the-art results in terms of matching and 3D reconstruction.

Finding obstacle-free paths in unknown environments is a big navigation issue for visually impaired people and autonomous robots. Previous works focus on obstacle avoidance, however they do not have a general view of the environment they are moving in. New devices based on computer vision systems can help impaired people to overcome the difficulties of navigating in unknown environments in safe conditions. In this work it is proposed a combination of sensors and algorithms that can lead to the building of a navigation system for visually impaired people. Based on traditional systems that use RGB-D cameras for obstacle avoidance, it is included and combined the information of a fish-eye camera, which will give a better understanding of the user's surroundings. The combination gives robustness and reliability to the system as well as a wide field of view that allows to obtain many information from the environment. This combination of sensors is inspired by human vision where the center of the retina (fovea) provides more accurate information than the periphery, where humans have a wider field of view. The proposed system is mounted on a wearable device that provides the obstacle-free zones of the scene, allowing the planning of trajectories for people guidance.

We introduce a novel hybrid camera configuration composed by a fisheye camera attached to an RGB-D system. Current RGB-D sensors provide the 3D information and scale of the scene, but they are limited by a small field of view. In contrast, wide field of view cameras capture a larger portion of the scene, but providing highly distorted images that require specific algorithms. By coupling a fisheye camera to an RGB-D system we take advantage of both types of cameras overcoming their drawbacks. The system provides a portion of the fisheye image with depth data and we use this seed information to perform scaled operations in the complete image. We also present a calibration procedure of the system to map depth information to the wide angle image. With this purpose, we propose a depth-fisheye calibration algorithm nurturing from state of the art camera models and methods. Several experiments test the accuracy of the system with real images.
