How did they decide what the inside of the strawberry looks like? Because that seems very incorrect.

- db48x 5mo agoThe flesh of the strawberry is very slightly translucent. By taking images from many angles, you can derive some information about the interior. This is not a separate step, it is simply the optimizer finding splats that contribute the right amount of color and light at various viewing angles. Of course those splats aren’t really going to look right to anyone who has ever eaten a strawberry, because they are only derived from the input images and not your past memories of a real strawberry. You’ll also see the same type of problems in any incomplete part of any scene. Go poke around any of them and you’ll find places where there wasn’t enough information to make a satisfying reconstruction. For example, the back of the moon <https://superspl.at/scene/2ac8f423 https://superspl.at/scene/2ac8f423>, the fridge in the coffee shop <https://superspl.at/scene/6a0c3ccf https://superspl.at/scene/6a0c3ccf>, underneath the footbridge in the forest <https://superspl.at/scene/23ebe85c https://superspl.at/scene/23ebe85c> (or indeed anything in the distance), etc, etc.
