LEAP-NBV: Lightweight Edge Active-Perception for Foundation-Model Next-Best-View Planning

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 21, 2026 · UTC

Foundation models are endowing autonomous systems with greater intelligence, enabling a more comprehensive understanding of the environment through visual perception. A representative example is Human Mesh Recovery (HMR), which provides useful estimates of a target's 3D pose and shape that can benefit tactical missions. However, the size and power demands of such models make them difficult to run on edge platforms and limit their real-time performance, undermining the requirements of tactical edge deployment - especially for active perception, where a mobile robot must plan its next-best view
