M3GD: Multi-Modal Multi-View Geometric Diffusion for Camera--LiDAR Novel View Synthesis

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 24, 2026 · UTC

Robotic novel view synthesis (NVS) must recover both visual appearance and metric 3D structure, yet most generative NVS methods rely only on images, overlooking LiDAR, a complementary sensor common on robotic platforms. We present M3GD, a Camera--LiDAR multimodal representation for generative NVS that composes independently pretrained 2D image and 3D point-cloud foundation models without separately pretraining a cross-modal translator. We show that, after camera projection, frozen LiDAR and image features exhibit substantial shared spatial structure, providing a natural cross-modal representat
