Researchers have developed PLOT, a novel framework for generating 3D annotations from monocular videos without requiring auxiliary sensors or model retraining. This method leverages object and background trajectory tracking to estimate camera motion and associate objects in pose-unknown scenarios. By aligning frame-wise pseudo-LiDARs and fusing them through optimization, PLOT creates robust object shapes that can handle occlusion and viewpoint shifts, demonstrating effectiveness across diverse and unconstrained video domains.
