You could maybe treat them as particle systems, or move groups of them by manipulating a volume containing them.

Will this be used for Harvard architecture where programs are run straight from their storage instead of first being read into RAM? Maybe we can use data stored on this instead of having to stream it from storage to RAM?

Maybe I'll believe them when a consumer on Windows and Linux can download a binary from something like Meshlab or Automatic1111 and it just works on their gaming computer. If all they're interested in is selling CDNA to data cente

I had similar problems maybe 15 years ago, so I don't remember exactly how I solved it. In my case it was a NIC driver that filled up some queue when I downloaded "Linux ISOs" too fast over bittorrent. There are tools availab

How do you edit a NeRF? Let's say I want to change material of an object in the scene, or rotate part of it, or compose several into a new scene, etc. Or animate it. It's not really a good representation of a 3D scene IMO, unless

That's because AI as a buzzword means deep learning now, but there's plenty of other AI that doesn't use training data and requires good knowledge of the problem you want to solve. If you look at one of the most widely used t

One big difference between NeRFs and this technique is that a NeRF is a jumbled mess of interconnected nodes, while this is a collection of values that lives in 3D space. It's much easier to reason about and could probably be integrate

A better solution would be to use a program that does what most people think of when they hear the word photogrammetry these days, 3D reconstruction from multiple images, and then make an orthorectified image from that. OpenDroneMap can do
