Abstract

We present a system for 3D semantic scene perception consisting of a network of distributed smart edge sensors. The sensor nodes are based on an embedded CNN inference accelerator and RGB-D and thermal cameras. Efficient vision CNN models for object detection, semantic segmentation, and human pose estimation run on-device in real time. 2D human keypoint estimations, augmented with the RGB-D depth estimate, as well as semantically annotated point clouds are streamed from the sensors to a central backend, where multiple viewpoints are fused into an allocentric 3D semantic scene model. As the image interpretation is computed locally, only semantic information is sent over the network. The raw images remain on the sensor boards, significantly reducing the required bandwidth, and mitigating privacy risks for the observed persons. We evaluate the proposed system in challenging real-world multi-person scenes in our lab. The proposed perception system provides a complete scene view containing semantically annotated 3D geometry and estimates 3D poses of multiple persons in real time.
