Hold on to your papers, Mike has made a great presentation at Siggraph about our efforts into increasing quality of our volumetric video assets with differential rendering and neural radiance fields.

Make sure to watch it, the recording is available here (requires a free account). The presentation includes a nice overview of relevant research and some of our early results.

We've showed our applications and extensions to Extracting Triangular 3D Models, Materials, and Lighting From Images and Instant Neural Graphics Primitives with a Multiresolution Hash Encoding research projects.

Here are the Two Minute Papers videos about those papers from NVIDIA: nvdiffrec, instant ngp.

I was involved in the nvdiffrec experiments.

What a time to be alive!
