> **Metric-semantic understanding** is the capability to simultaneously estimate the 3D geometry of a scene and attach a semantic label to objects and structures (e.g., tables, walls). Geometric information is critical for robots to navigate safely and to manipulate objects, while semantic information provides the ideal level of abstraction for a robot to understand and execute human instructions (e.g., “bring me a cup of coffee”, “exit from the red door”) and to provide humans with models of the environment that are easy to understand.
