A method for scale-aware depth estimation using multi-camera projection loss is described. The method includes determining a multi-camera photometric loss associated with a multi-camera rig of an ego vehicle. The method also includes training a scale-aware depth estimation model and an ego-motion estimation model according to the multi-camera photometric loss. The method further includes predicting a 360° point cloud of a scene surrounding the ego vehicle according to the scale-aware depth estimation model and the ego-motion estimation model. The method also includes planning a vehicle control action of the ego vehicle according to the 360° point cloud of the scene surrounding the ego vehicle.
