Will NeRFs Replace Photogrammetry?

In this episode of Computer Vision Decoded, we are going to dive into one of the hottest topics in the industry: Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs)We are joined by Matt Tancik, a student pursuing a PhD in the computer science and electrical engineering department at UC Berkeley. He has also contributed research to the original NeRF project in 2020 along with several others since then.Last but not least, he is building NeRFStudio - a collaboration friendly studio for NeRFs.In this episode you will learn about what NeRFs are and more importantly what they are not. Matt goes into the challenges of large scale NeRF creation with his experience with Block-NeRF.Follow Matt's work at https://www.matthewtancik.com/Get started with Nerfstudio here: https://docs.nerf.studio/en/latest/Block-NeRF details: https://waymo.com/research/block-nerf/00:00 Intro00:45 Matt’s Background Into NeRF Research 04:00 What is a NeRF and how it is different from photogrammetry11:57 Can geometry be extracted from NeRFs?15:30 Will NeRFs supersede photogrammetry in the future? 22:47 Block-NeRF and the pros and cons of using 360 cameras25:30 What is the goal of Block-NeRF30:44 Why do NeRFs need large GPUs to compute?35:45 Meshes to simulate NeRF visualizations40:28 What is Nerfstudio?47:40 How to get started with NerfstudioFollow Jared Heinly on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JaredHeinlyFollow Jonathan Stephens on Twitter at: https://twitter.com/jonstephens85This episode is brought to you by EveryPoint.
