3D Computer Vision and Smart Building and City, 2nd Edition: Volume I

This Topic is a continuation of the previous successful Topic, "3D Computer Vision and Smart Building and City". Three-dimensional computer vision is an interdisciplinary subject involving computer vision, computer graphics, artificial intelligence and other fields. Its main contents include 3D perception, 3D understanding and 3D modeling. In recent years, 3D computer vision technology has developed rapidly and has been widely used in unmanned aerial vehicles, robots, autonomous driving, AR, VR and other fields. Smart buildings and cities use various information technologies or innovative concepts to connect as well as various systems and services so as to improve the efficiency of resource utilization, optimize management and services and improve quality of life. Smart buildings and cities can involve some frontier techniques, such as 3D CV for building information models, digital twins, city information models, simultaneous localization and mapping robots. The application of 3D computer vision in smart buildings and cities is a valuable research direction, but it still faces many major challenges. This topic focuses on the theory and technology of 3D computer vision in smart buildings and cities.
