Researchers have developed MoSoLoco, a novel monocular 3D human localization system designed for resource-constrained robotic hardware. This system leverages internal visual features from pose estimators along with detected 2D keypoints, eliminating the need for separate RGB or depth encoders. MoSoLoco can also integrate sparse multi-person context from the same frame to enhance individual position estimates. Experiments on JRDB and NuScenes datasets demonstrate significant improvements in localization accuracy compared to existing keypoint-based methods, with the full pipeline capable of efficient inference on devices like the Jetson AGX Xavier.
