From the abstract

We present Pow3R-SLAM, a real-time RGB-D simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) system that uses Pow3R for tracking and mapping. Inspired by MASt3R-SLAM, a recent work on monocular SLAM using two-view 3D reconstruction priors, we extend the work to incorporate depth as a prior on the network's prediction, rather than as geometry to fuse.

From the abstract. Our summary is in progress.
