Research questionHow can single-image depth estimation resolve scale ambiguity to produce consistent metric depth across environments?A single image lacks an absolute scale reference, so a model may recover relative scene geometry while predicting depths whose units shift across environments. The challenge is retaining scale consistency from multi-view geometry when deployment provides only one image.
