NVIDIA's Instant NeRF: transforming 2D images into 3D scenes in record time - Actu IA

Instant NeRF, a neural network-based technology capable of transforming a set of 2D photos into high-resolution 3D scenes in seconds, was introduced at an NVIDIA GTC session in March. According to the NVIDIA Research team, this would be one of the first models of its kind to combine ultra-fast neural network training and fast rendering. In its press release, NVIDIA recalls the technological revolution that Edwin Land brought on February 21, 1947 by producing an instant photo with a polaroid camera. NVIDIA Research pays tribute to him by recreating an iconic photo of Andy Warhol taking an instant photo, transforming it into a 3D scene using Instant NeRF. Artificial intelligence researchers at NVIDIA Research took the opposite approach with the goal of transforming a set of still images into a 3D digital scene in seconds.
