About this opportunity:
Extended reality (XR) applications need reliable estimates of object distance and motion. However, future lightweight XR and AI glasses may not include dedicated depth sensors because of cost, power, and form-factor constraints.
This thesis will investigate whether a pretrained world model, such as NVIDIA Cosmos, can use semantic and scale-related priors to improve metric localization of distant moving objects from monocular XR video. The approach will be evaluated against built-in depth sensing and conventional monocular depth estimation.
What you will do:
Build a Quest 3 RGB-video capture pipeline with server-side inference.
Keep the Cosmos backbone frozen and train a lightweight probe to estimate object distance and motion.
Evaluate the system in controlled scenes with walking people and moving objects, using measured ground truth and depth-estimation baselines.
Assess accuracy, computational requirements, latency, and uplink requirements.
The skills you bring:
A working prototype.
A documented dataset and measurement setup.
Quantitative accuracy and latency results.
A thesis report with recommendations for camera-only XR perception and network-assisted spatial intelligence.
