| contents | Photo-realistic rendering and novel view synthesis play a crucial role in human-computer interaction tasks, from gaming to path planning. Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs) model scenes as continuous volumetric functions and achieve remarkable rendering quality. However, NeRFs often struggle in large, low-textured areas, producing cloudy artifacts known as ''floaters'' that reduce scene realism, especially in indoor environments with featureless architectural surfaces like walls, ceilings, and floors. To overcome this limitation, prior work has integrated geometric constraints into the NeRF pipeline, typically leveraging depth information derived from Structure from Motion or Multi-View Stereo. Yet, conventional RGB-feature correspondence methods face challenges in accurately estimating depth in textureless regions, leading to unreliable constraints. This challenge is further complicated in 360-degree ''inside-out'' views, where sparse visual overlap between adjacent images further hinders depth estimation. In order to address these issues, we propose an efficient and robust method for computing dense depth priors, specifically tailored for large low-textured architectural surfaces in indoor environments. We introduce a novel depth loss function to enhance rendering quality in these challenging, low-feature regions, while complementary depth-patch regularization further refines depth consistency across other areas. Experiments with Instant-NGP on two synthetic 360-degree indoor scenes demonstrate improved visual fidelity with our method compared to standard photometric loss and Mean Squared Error depth supervision. |
