Re: HybridNeRF: Efficient Neural Rendering
#3Does anyone else look forward to a game that lets you transform your house or neighbor into a playable level with destructible objects? How far are we from recognizing the “car” and making it drivable, or the “tree” and making it choppable?

Everyone I believe...
- Light data for Rendering
and
- fast 3D Reconstruction
======> Big winner.
So many laboratories and software dev have given a shot at this. None have yet won.
Success often lies in small (but important ) details...

I dreamed of that since being a kid, so for nearly three decades now. It's been entirely possible even then - it was just a matter of using enough elbow grease. The problem is, the world is full of shiny happy people ready to call you a terrorist, assert their architectural copyright, or bring in the "creepiness factor", to shut down anyone who tries this.

There's also just the fact that 1:1 reproductions of real-world places rarely make for good video game environments. Gameplay has to inform the layout and set dressing, and how you perceive space in games requires liberties to be taken to keep interiors from feeling weirdly cramped (any kid who had the idea to measure their house and build it in Quake or CS found this out the hard way).
The main exception I can think of is in racing simulators, it's already common for the developers of those to drive LiDAR cars around real-world tracks and use that data to build a 1:1 replica for their game. NeRF might be a natural extension of that if they can figure out a way to combine it with dynamic lighting and weather conditions.

#7What's the state of the art right now that can be run on my laptop from a set of photos? I want to play with NERFs, starting by generating one from a bunch of photos of my apartment, so I can then fly around the space virtually.

Having destructible objects is in no way possible on contemporary hardware, unless you simplify the physics to the extreme. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding your statement?
Recognising objects for what they are has only recently become somewhat possible. Separating them in a 3D scan is still pretty much impossible.

Probably Nerf studio

Destructible environments have been a thing for like....a decade or so? There's plenty of tricks to make it realistic enough to be fun without simulating every molecule.
