Abstract
System, methods, and embodiments described herein relate to dynamically generating a wide field-of-view three-dimensional pseudo point cloud of an environment around a vehicle. A disclosed method may include capturing, via a camera, a first view in a first image, determining a first depth map based on the first image, obtaining, from an external system, a second image of a second view that overlaps the first view and a second depth map based on the second image, inputting the first image and the second image into a self-supervised homograph network that is trained to output a homographic transformation matrix between the first image and the second image, and generating a three-dimensional pseudo point cloud that combines the first depth map and the second depth map based on the homographic transformation matrix.
