OVERVIEW
One model for geometry perception
UniT is a unified feed-forward model that reformulates a wide range of geometry perception capabilities into a single framework, covering diverse view configurations, modality combinations, metric-scale perception, and long-horizon scalability. It supports both online and offline inference over an arbitrary number of views, flexibly incorporates auxiliary modalities such as camera parameters and depth maps, recovers geometry at metric scale in physical units, and maintains bounded complexity over long horizons in in-the-wild environments.
-
01
Any view configuration
Online video, binocular streams and offline multi-view sets, over any number of views.
-
02
Any modality combination
Camera intrinsics, extrinsics and depth maps can be added whenever they are available.
-
03
Metric-scale perception
Geometry is recovered in physical units rather than up to an unknown scale.
-
04
Long-horizon scalability
Complexity stays bounded as sequences grow in in-the-wild environments.
