## Abstract (arXiv)

Multi-camera systems are increasingly practical for robotics, AR/VR, and autonomous driving because complementary views reduce depth ambiguity and preserve visibility under occlusion. Existing point-tracking benchmarks, however, focus on a single video or static multi-camera rigs. None test long-term 3D point tracking across several synchronized views under camera motion. We introduce TAPVid-MV (Tracking Any Point in Video across Multiple Views), the first benchmark for this setting. It contains a curated set of 238 sequences, 1,004 calibrated camera streams, and 74,147 point tracks across seven subsets spanning indoor and outdoor domains, from robotics and human activity to driving and synthetic procedural scenes. We obtain these trajectories using dataset-specific auxiliary modalities: sensor depth, LiDAR, SLAM and SfM points, human meshes, posed object meshes, and simulation. Every sequence and trajectory is visually verified by human annotators. Across more than 30 baselines, no method comes close to solving the task. Surprisingly, existing multi-view point trackers do not consistently outperform monocular point trackers. By evaluating reconstruction and point tracking on the same datasets, TAPVid-MV helps distinguish errors in recovered geometry from errors in point correspondence. Through this joint analysis, we identify geometry recovery as a major bottleneck for accurate 3D point tracking. Beyond multi-view 3D point tracking, our released annotations support monocular 2D and 3D point tracking, future-trajectory prediction, and 4D reconstruction.
