Automated Generation And Use Of Visual Models Of Buildings Using At Least Captured External Imagery

원문 (중국어)

Techniques are described for automatically generating visual model representations of buildings based at least in part on captured external imagery of the buildings, and using the generated building visual models to generate and present new images and optionally in additional manners, such as to improve navigation of a building and/or its surroundings. The described techniques may include acquiring building data from a plurality of exterior acquisition locations at multiple heights and view angles of an exterior of a building (e.g., using a flying drone and/or other flying device that captures the data), generating visual model representation(s) of the building (e.g., a 3D Gaussian Splat model), and using the generated visual model representation(s) to generate and present a new image with a view of the building exterior from a particular pose along with associated user-manipulatable controls.
