Researchers have developed DarkVGGT, a new framework designed for 3D scene geometry estimation in low-light conditions. This system leverages both RGB and thermal imaging, incorporating physics-aware thermal modeling to overcome the limitations of visible-light appearance. DarkVGGT includes modules for extracting geometry-consistent thermal cues and routing modality-invariant geometric structures, enabling more accurate depth and camera pose estimation even when RGB data is degraded.
