Abstract: This document describes scene understanding for cross reality systems using occupancy grids. In one aspect, a method includes recognizing one or more objects in a model of a physical environment generated using images of the physical environment. For each object, a bounding box is fit around the object. An occupancy grid that includes a multiple cells is generated within the bounding box around the object. A value is assigned to each cell of the occupancy grid based on whether the cell includes a portion of the object. An object representation that includes information describing the occupancy grid for the object is generated. The object representations are sent to one or more devices.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for scalable three-dimensional (3-D) object recognition in a cross reality system. One of the methods includes maintaining object data specifying objects that have been recognized in a scene. A stream of input images of the scene is received, including a stream of color images and a stream of depth images. A color image is provided as input to an object recognition system. A recognition output that identifies a respective object mask for each object in the color image is received. A synchronization system determines a corresponding depth image for the color image. A 3-D bounding box generation system determines a respective 3-D bounding box for each object that has been recognized in the color image. Data specifying one or more 3-D bounding boxes is received as output from the 3-D bounding box generation system.
