RoMe: Towards Large Scale Road Surface Reconstruction via Mesh Representation
share
Large-scale road surface reconstruction is becoming important to autonomous driving systems, as it provides valuable training and testing data effectively. In this paper, we introduce a simple yet efficient method, RoMe, for large-scale Road surface reconstruction via Mesh representations. To simplify the problem, RoMe decomposes a 3D road surface into a triangle-mesh and a multilayer perception network to model the road elevation implicitly. To retain fine surface details, each mesh vertex has two extra attributes, namely color and semantics. To improve the efficiency of RoMe in large-scale environments, a novel waypoint sampling method is introduced. As such, RoMe can properly preserve road surface details, with only linear computational complexity to road areas. In addition, to improve the accuracy of RoMe, extrinsics optimization is proposed to mitigate inaccurate extrinsic calibrations. Experimental results on popular public datasets also demonstrate the high efficiency and accuracy of RoMe.
