Proximity3D: New Method Reconstructs 3D Shapes from Curved Capacitive Sensors

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed Proximity3D, a novel method for reconstructing 3D shapes using capacitive proximity fields on curved sensing manifolds. Unlike traditional methods that rely on planar domains like RGB images, Proximity3D utilizes a flexible capacitive textile to capture proximity signals induced by object geometry. A multi-view feedforward model then aggregates these signals to reconstruct the object's shape, demonstrating robust performance in both simulated and physical experiments for enhanced robotic near-field geometric awareness. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more sophisticated embodied sensing for robots, enabling better near-field geometric awareness and manipulation capabilities.

    Proximity3D: Shape from Capacitive Proximity on Sensing Manifold

    arXiv:2608.30344v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most shape reconstruction methods assume measurements defined over planar sensing domains, such as RGB images or depth maps. In this paper, we use a curved capacitive textile as a shape sensor, treating its surface as a non-planar s…
