Abstract: Methods and apparatus to generate photo-realistic three-dimensional models of a photographed environment are disclosed. An apparatus includes an object position calculator to determine a three-dimensional (3D) position of an object detected within a first image of an environment and within a second image of the environment. The apparatus further includes a 3D model generator to generate a 3D model of the environment based on the first image and the second image. The apparatus also includes a model integrity analyzer to detect a difference between the 3D position of the object and the 3D model. The 3D model generator automatically modifies the 3D model based on the difference in response to the difference satisfying a confidence threshold.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for adapting a driving condition of a vehicle. The system includes a non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon a pre-programmed driving maneuver of the vehicle. The system also includes a processor configured to obtain audio data of acoustic sources in the environment of the vehicle. The processor is further configured to determine a receiving direction of the acoustic source based on the audio data. The processor is further configured to determine whether the acoustic source are located within the maneuver of the vehicle based on the pre-programmed or updated driving maneuvers and the determined receiving direction of the acoustic source. Furthermore, the processor is configured to determine a range between the vehicle and the acoustic source in order to determine that the acoustic source is located within the driving path of the vehicle.
