In the advancement of industrial informatization, Unsupervised Industrial Anomaly Detection (UIAD) technology effectively overcomes the scarcity of abnormal samples and significantly enhances the automation and reliability of smart manufacturing. While RGB, 3D, and multimodal anomaly detection have demonstrated comprehensive and robust capabilities within the industrial informatization sector, existing reviews on industrial anomaly detection have not sufficiently classified and discussed methods in 3D and multimodal settings. We focus on 3D UIAD and multimodal UIAD, providing a comprehensive summary of unsupervised industrial anomaly detection in three modal settings. Firstly, we compare our surveys with recent works, introducing commonly used datasets, evaluation metrics, and the definitions of anomaly detection problems. Secondly, we summarize five research paradigms in RGB, 3D and multimodal UIAD and three emerging industrial manufacturing optimization directions in RGB UIAD, and review three multimodal feature fusion strategies in multimodal settings. Finally, we outline the primary challenges currently faced by UIAD in three modal settings, and offer insights into future development directions, aiming to provide researchers with a thorough reference and offer new perspectives for the advancement of industrial informatization.
