Hey, 3D vision system amateur here, but very interested to learn more!

Can anybody point me to some literature or reference materials about attempts to combine the inputs from multiple techniques simultaneously?

E.g. a device with stereo conventional cameras and infrared cameras & emitters which compares the resulting model from each input source/technique and actively re-adjusts final depth estimate?

Is "sensor fusion" the right jargon to use in this context?

Or, even crazier, a control system which actively jitters the camera's pose to gain more information for points in the depth map with lower confidence scores / conflicting estimates?

But maybe such a setup is overly complex and yields minimal gains in mixed indoor & outdoor scenarios?
