Panoramic 3D Reconstruction

The demand for large-scale digital twins is rapidly growing in robotics and autonomous driving. However, constructing these environments with 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) usually requires expensive, purpose-built data collection. Meanwhile, deployed platforms routinely collect extensive omnidirectional RGB and LiDAR logs, but a significant portion of these sensor data is directly discarded or strictly underutilized due to transmission constraints and the lack of scalable reuse pipeline. In this paper, we present an omnidirectional RGB-LiDAR reuse pipeline that transforms these archived logs into robust initialization assets for 3DGS. Direct conversion of such raw logs introduces practical bottlenecks: inherent non-linear distortion leads to unreliable Structure-from-Motion (SfM) tracking, and dense, unorganized LiDAR clouds cause computational overhead during 3DGS optimization. To overcome these challenges, our pipeline strategically integrates an ERP-to-cubemap conversion module for deterministic spatial anchoring, alongside PRISM-a color stratified downsampling strategy. By bridging these multi-modal inputs via Fast Point Feature Histograms (FPFH) based global registration and Iterative Closest Point (ICP), our pipeline successfully repurposes a considerable fraction of discarded data into usable SfM geometry. Furthermore, our LiDAR-reinforced initialization consistently enhances the final 3DGS rendering fidelity in structurally complex scenes compared to vision-only baselines. Ultimately, this work provides a deterministic workflow for creating simulation-grade digital twins from standard archived sensor logs.

Generating explorable 3D scenes from a single image is a highly challenging problem in 3D vision. Existing methods struggle to support free exploration, often producing severe geometric distortions and noisy artifacts when the viewpoint moves far from the original perspective. We introduce One2Scene, an effective framework that decomposes this ill-posed problem into three tractable sub-tasks to enable immersive explorable scene generation. We first use a panorama generator to produce anchor views from a single input image as initialization. Then, we lift these 2D anchors into an explicit 3D geometric scaffold via a generalizable, feed-forward Gaussian Splatting network. Instead of treating the panorama as a single image for reconstruction, we project it into multiple sparse anchor views and reformulate the reconstruction task as multi-view stereo matching, which allows us to leverage robust geometric priors learned from large-scale multi-view datasets. A bidirectional feature fusion module is used to enforce cross-view consistency, yielding an efficient and geometrically reliable scaffold. Finally, the scaffold serves as a strong prior for a novel view generator to produce photorealistic and geometrically accurate views at arbitrary cameras. By explicitly conditioning on a 3D-consistent scaffold to perform reconstruction, One2Scene works stably under large camera motions, supporting immersive scene exploration. Extensive experiments show that One2Scene substantially outperforms state-of-the-art methods in panorama depth estimation, feed-forward 360° reconstruction, and explorable 3D scene generation.
