Bridging the simulation-to-reality gap in roadside LiDAR requires addressing several coupled discrepancies, including scene geometry, sampling density, return patterns, and pedestrian scale. This report presents a multi-source collaborative training and class-aware fusion framework for Sim2Real 3D detection. The method organizes digital-twin scans, diffusion-redrawn scans, density-stabilized scans, and pedestrian morphology-aligned samples into a unified training pool with complementary roles. Within a common DSVT detection formulation, source-specialized expert branches preserve those roles while optimizing for the same detection objective. At inference, a predefined class-aware fusion pathway integrates geometry-stable and calibration-aware branches for vehicles, sampling-complementary branches for trucks, and morphology-consistent evidence for pedestrians. A label-free point-cloud center blend then refines geometric localization. On the UrbanTwin V2X-Real hidden test set, the unified system achieves a combined score of 0.7421, with 3D mAP@0.5 of 0.4518 and a realism score of 0.8871. The results indicate that a stable, interpretable collaboration among data sources is more valuable than unconstrained aggregation of model outputs.
We present our solution to the LUMPI track of the UCF UrbanTwin Sim2Real LiDAR Challenge at the 6th DriveX Workshop, ECCV 2026. The detector must be trained only on synthetic data and is evaluated on 50 held-out real LiDAR frames; a separate 50-frame synthetic submission is evaluated for point-cloud realism. Our method addresses the Sim2Real gap at three levels. First, we align synthetic scans to the 50k-point test density and build a 30k-record training pool using UT-LUMPI geometry, RangeLDM-based sampling diversification, rare-class copy-paste, and pedestrian-oriented augmentation. Second, complementary DSVT detectors and Car/Bus PointPillars specialists are trained under the same synthetic-only constraint. Third, predictions are integrated by class-aware routing, asymmetric agreement fusion, constrained residual-recall supplementation, class-coverage auditing, and selective box-size calibration. The realism branch is optimized independently with radial-density matching, weak affine calibration, and calibrated set mixing. The final submission obtains a Combined Score of 0.4692, a Detection Score of 0.1797, a Realism Score of 0.9035, and 3D mAP@0.5 of 0.1258.
We describe a Camera and LiDAR fusion detector developed for the TUMTraf V2X cooperative 3D object detection track of the DriveX 2026 challenge. The detector fuses three roadside cameras with a fused infrastructure-plus-vehicle point cloud in a shared bird's-eye-view space and predicts boxes through a CenterPoint-style head with a generalized IoU regression loss and an IoU quality re-ranking head. Trained on the provided train and validation splits, the model reaches a 3D mAP of 0.85 on the public Codabench test split. While iterating on the system, we observed that 44 of the 50 test frames are also present in the released train (40) and validation (4) splits with their labels. We therefore conducted two additional studies to quantify how this overlap affects the final score: (1) a finetuning run that oversamples the 44 overlapping frames, reaching 0.89 mAP, and (2) a post-processing run that replaces predictions on those frames with the released ground truth, reaching 0.99 mAP (uploaded to our Codabench account for testing but not published on the leaderboard). All three configurations and their per-class results are reported.
LiDAR-based collaborative 3D perception in Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) systems typically relies on fusing bird's-eye-view (BEV) features across agents. However, current BEV representations, typically extracted by LiDAR backbones trained from scratch, are geometry-dominated and lack general semantic priors, inherently limiting the efficacy of feature-level collaboration. Meanwhile, vision foundation models (VFMs) pretrained on large-scale image data have demonstrated strong capability in learning general-purpose and informative visual representations for 2D tasks, and have the potential to enhance agent-wise LiDAR BEV representations for collaboration. Despite this potential, adapting VFMs to LiDAR-based 3D detection remains challenging due to the substantial image-point cloud modality gap. To bridge this gap, we propose ViCo3D, a collaborative 3D object detection framework powered by VFMs. Specifically, ViCo3D adapts VFMs to LiDAR-based collaborative perception from three aspects: First, ViCo3D projects point clouds onto the BEV plane as three-channel images, enabling DINOv2 to extract BEV-space visual features from LiDAR inputs. Besides, to effectively integrate these DINOv2-derived features with LiDAR geometric features, ViCo3D introduces a multi-scale BEV fusion module within the single-agent encoder. In addition, ViCo3D adopts an ego-centric cross-agent fusion strategy to aggregate complementary information from multiple agents. Experiments on DAIR-V2X and V2XSet demonstrate that ViCo3D achieves state-of-the-art 3D detection performance. Remarkably, it delivers up to 1.8x greater collaborative gains than prior methods on DAIR-V2X. The code will be made public available for future investigation.
