Unified Panoramic Geometry Estimation via Multi-View Foundation Models
Summary
PaGeR adapts the multi-view perspective foundation model Depth Anything 3 to predict scale-invariant and metric depth, surface normals, and sky segmentation from a single equirectangular image, using a fixed cubemap representation that keeps VRAM and runtime constant. The paper also releases the ZüriPano and PanoInfinigen datasets.

Source: https://huggingface.co/papers/2605.26368 TL;DR: PaGeR turns a perspective 3D foundation model into a single-pass 360° geometry estimator — from one equirectangular image it predicts scale-invariant depth, metric depth (in metres), surface normals, and sky segmentation at full panoramic resolution.
We introduce PaGeR (Panoramic Geometry Reconstruction), which lifts a multi-view perspective foundation model (Depth Anything 3) to the panoramic domain via a fixed 6×504×504 cubemap, so VRAM and runtime stay constant regardless of input resolution. A single forward pass returns Scale-invariant + metric depth, world-frame normals, and a sky mask. We also release two new datasets — ZüriPano (real eval) and PanoInfinigen (synthetic training).
