A new research paper proposes a geometry-first approach for multi-camera 3D tracking in large indoor warehouses, outperforming methods that rely on estimated depth. The study, submitted to arXiv, found that a pipeline using YOLO11x detection and geometric consistency achieved a 3D HOTA score of 13.0, significantly higher than the 0.12 score obtained by a pseudo-LiDAR method. The researchers attribute this performance gap to the cross-view inconsistency of monocular depth estimation, which even domain-adaptation fine-tuning could not fully resolve within the given constraints.
