Week 8: From PDR Success to Segmentation Breakthroughs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This has been an incredibly productive and rewarding week for Team Voxel<\/strong>! A major highlight was the successful completion of our Preliminary Design Review (PDR)<\/strong> presentation to the AGIS AI Team<\/strong>. We’re thrilled to report that the presentation went smoothly, and we received very positive feedback from the team. This interaction was invaluable, giving us fresh perspectives and solid validation for our approach moving forward. Beyond the PDR, we also took significant steps in preparing our system for critical testing, specifically by preparing a dataset<\/strong> for evaluating the manual input approach to object information in our Segmentation Module<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the technical front, a huge amount of effort went into advancing our segmentation and 3D reconstruction capabilities<\/strong> this week. Our team successfully tested the Dust3R and COLMAP models<\/strong> on segmented objects and critically identified drawbacks<\/strong> for each, which is key to refining our methodology. We explored a range of segmentation techniques, including zero-shot<\/strong>, Vision AI<\/strong>, and foreground\/background segmentation<\/strong> using both SAM<\/strong> and Mobile SAM<\/strong>. For our work with COLMAP<\/strong>, we integrated the YOLOv8s model<\/strong> to specifically segment and pass reflective objects<\/strong> into the pipeline to test mesh generation<\/strong>. These deep dives into different models and techniques are crucial for ensuring the robustness and accuracy of our final solution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
