Roughly two months ago, James Perlman called me with an ambitious idea. He was going to build a new NeRF algorithm completely from scratch. Today, on Pi Day, the EntrepreNeRF announced a early peek of TurboNeRF.

As of publication, TurboNeRF is completely open sourced and has a MIT License.

In order to get TurboNeRF running, only two components are necessary for download. If you already had it downloaded, you'll need to update both the Blender add-on AND the PyTurboNeRF bridge.

While this is just an early peek at the full release, the progress made has been astounding. If you are curious how he built it, James streamed the entire creation of TurboNeRF (from scratch) on his Twitch.

James' work was recently shown by Jonathan Stephens in a presentation, though TurboNeRF was not. This has continued to be an exciting week for NeRFs and it's only Tuesday!

Shrinking 3DGS File Size

Gaussian Splatting has quickly become one of the most exciting research topics in Radiance Fields, thanks to its fast training, real time rendering rates, and easy to create pipeline. The one critique that emerged was the resulting file size from captures, often venturing into the high hundreds of megabytes and up.

A short 170 year history of Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF), Holograms, and Light Fields

Lightfield and hologram capture started with a big theoretical idea 115 years ago and we have struggled to make them viable ever since. Neural Radiance fields aka NeRF along with gaming computers now for the first time provide a promising easy and low cost way for everybody to capture and display lightfields.
