Real-Time LiDAR Point Cloud Densification for Low-Latency Spatial Data Transmission

To realize low-latency spatial transmission system for immersive telepresence, there are two major problems: capturing dynamic 3D scene densely and processing them in real time. LiDAR sensors capture 3D in real time, but produce sparce point clouds. Therefore, this paper presents a high-speed LiDAR point cloud densification method to generate dense 3D scene with minimal latency, addressing the need for on-the-fly depth completion while maintaining real-time performance. Our approach combines multiple LiDAR inputs with high-resolution color images and applies a joint bilateral filtering strategy implemented through a convolutional neural network architecture. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method produces dense depth maps at full HD resolution in real time (30 fps), which is over 15x faster than a recent training-based depth completion approach. The resulting dense point clouds exhibit accurate geometry without multiview inconsistencies or ghosting artifacts.

A Low-Latency 3D Live Remote Visualization System for Tourist Sites Integrating Dynamic and Pre-captured Static Point Clouds

Various real-time methods for capturing and transmitting dynamic 3D spaces have been proposed, including those based on RGB-D cameras and volumetric capture. However, applying existing methods to outdoor tourist sites remains difficult because maintenance and aesthetic constraints limit sensor placement, and daylight variability complicates processing. We propose a system that combines multiple LiDARs and cameras for live dynamic point cloud capture, and integrates them with pre-captured static point clouds for wide-area 3D visualization. The system sustains 30 fps across wide-area scenes while keeping latency below 100 ms. To mitigate lighting inconsistencies, static point-cloud colors are automatically adjusted to current lighting. The effectiveness of our system is demonstrated through real-world deployment in a tourist site.
