ROS 1 had schema evolution (rosbag migration) 15 years ago

Understood. Thanks for the clarification.

Wait, you renamed Forge ( https://forge.dev ) released last week by World Labs, a startup that raised $230M. Is this "I worked with some friends and I hope you find useful" or is i…

> The big difference of course, based on reading this, is that NeRF models the whole light transmission function ("radiance field") whereas this seems to model only the boundary co…

IANAL but I assume so. "Employee of a competing company" (whatever that means) isn't a protected class.

And Matterport will never see them coming, as their employees are banned from using Luma: Competitors: No employee, independent contractor, agent, or affiliate of any competing 3-D…

Rising rates don't make the dollar stronger. There's no empirical relationship between interest rates and exchange rates.

Yes, although not complete noise – probably empty. Haven't checked but assume there's regularization of the NeRF parameters.

DreamFusion doesn't directly build a 3D model from those generated images. It starts with a completely random 3D voxel model, renders it from 6 different angles, then asks Stable D…

Key step in generating 3D – ask Stable Diffusion to score views from different angles: for d in ['front', 'side', 'back', 'side', 'overhead', 'bottom']: text = f"{ref_text}, {d} vi…

We rely on Wasm for Metascan ( https://metascan.ai/explore ) which allows us to use the same rendering code on iOS, the desktop, and the web. Accessing multithreading is limited as…

iPhone/iPad's LiDAR Scanner.

6D.ai wasn’t released until 2018. You may be thinking of Abound, which you wanted to license in March 2017. I don’t know of anyone else that had real-time meshing in 2017.

Interesting - I’ve never observed it kicking in. Would love to know in which circumstances it’s used. I assume you work for Apple to know this so understand if you can’t share more…

Correlation != causation. Try out our app, Metascan, to see an example of using TSDF with a multi-resolution GPU hashtable that only stores voxel data near surfaces. Or just skim t…

ORB-SLAM2 is SLAM only (similar to ARKit w/o VIO) so only reconstructs feature points - no surfaces. This research is about surface reconstruction.

ARKit doesn’t use LiDAR for camera pose tracking. TSDF memory isn’t an issue since Niessner et al. (2013).

Their research doesn't just integrate depth maps into a TSDF - it uses NN's to incorporate surface priors. I don't recall you having similar real-time meshing functionality in 2016…

I said "wanted it" not "wanted to build/finance it." Doubt he's given up wanting it. A human can always do better: take Google's results, then remove SEO spam/duplicates, extract m…

Building costs more than money.
