ESAM++: Efficient Online 3D Perception on the Edge 文章

arXiv:2605.29505v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Online 3D scene perception in real time is essential for robotics, AR/VR, and autonomous systems, particularly in edge computing scenarios where computational resources are limited and privacy is crucial. Recent state-of-the-art methods like EmbodiedSAM (ESAM) demonstrate the promise of online 3D perception by leveraging the Segment Anything Model (SAM) for real-time, fine-grained, and generalized 3D instance segmentation. However, ESAM still relies on a computationally expensive 3D sparse UNet for point cloud feature extraction, which accounts for the majority of the 3D inference time, hindering its practicality on resource-constrained devices. In this paper, we propose ESAM++, a lightweight and scalable alternative for online 3D scene perception tailored to edge devices without GPU acceleration.
