DXPR: Depth-Based Vision-LiDAR Cross-Modal Place Recognition Using Vision Foundation Models

We present DXPR, a depth-based cross-modal place recognition (CMPR) framework that uses vision foundation models (VFMs) to match monocular camera queries against a LiDAR map without modality-specific encoders. This enables robots and autonomous vehicles to robustly localize using only cameras within pre-built LiDAR map...
