| contents | Camera placement is crutial in multi-camera systems such as virtual reality, autonomous driving, and high-quality reconstruction. The camera placement challenge lies in the nonlinear nature of high-dimensional parameters and the unavailability of gradients for target functions like coverage and visibility. Consequently, most existing methods tackle this challenge by leveraging non-gradient-based optimization methods.In this work, we present a hybrid camera placement optimization approach that incorporates both gradient-based and non-gradient-based optimization methods. This design allows our method to enjoy the advantages of smooth optimization convergence and robustness from gradient-based and non-gradient-based optimization, respectively. To bridge the two disparate optimization methods, we propose a neural observation field, which implicitly encodes the coverage and observation quality. The neural observation field provides the measurements of the camera observations and corresponding gradients without the assumption of target scenes, making our method applicable to diverse scenarios, including 2D planar shapes, 3D objects, and room-scale 3D scenes.Extensive experiments on diverse datasets demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance, while requiring only a fraction (8x less) of the typical computation time. Furthermore, we conducted a real-world experiment using a custom-built capture system, confirming the resilience of our approach to real-world environmental noise. |
