A curated map through the 3D reconstruction jungle
A hand-maintained index of open-source deep-learning projects that turn images, video, and point clouds into 3D geometry.

What it does
This repository is a curated table of open-source GitHub projects that use deep learning for 3D reconstruction, depth estimation, visual odometry, and related tasks. Each entry lists the project name, keywords, URL, and license in a single glanceable row. Think of it as a field guide to a sprawling research area — no code of its own, just signposts.
The interesting bit
The maintainer has done the tedious work of distinguishing MIT and Apache-2.0 projects from the many “nn” (license not noted) entries, which is surprisingly useful when you’re deciding whether something is safe to ship in a product. The scope is deliberately broad, sweeping from monocular depth estimation to point-cloud completion to neural renderers.
Key highlights
- Covers roughly 100+ projects spanning TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras, and Caffe
- Includes well-known libraries like PyTorch3D (FAIR) and PointNet alongside niche research code
- Notes license for each entry — handy for commercial filtering
- Topics range from single-view reconstruction to multi-view stereo, SLAM, and scene completion
- Explicitly limited to open-source GitHub projects; no proprietary tools
Caveats
- No quality ranking or maintenance date; the “Awesomeness” column exists but is empty throughout
- README is a single giant table with no search, tags, or categorization beyond keywords
- Several entries are marked “nn” for license, which may mean unclear or simply unverified
Verdict
Grab this if you’re surveying the landscape for a 3D-vision paper to reproduce or a baseline to beat. Skip it if you need evaluated, benchmarked comparisons — this is a phone book, not a review article.
