Immersive Neural Graphics Primitives

Understand

Neural radiance field (NeRF), in particular its extension by instant neural graphics primitives, is a novel rendering method for view synthesis that uses real-world images to build photo-realistic immersive virtual scenes.

• Despite its potential, research on the combination of NeRF and virtual reality (VR) remains sparse.
• Currently, there is no integration into typical VR systems available, and the performance and suitability of NeRF implementations for VR have not been evaluated, for instance, for different scene complexities or screen resolutions.
• In this paper, we present and evaluate a NeRF-based framework that is capable of rendering scenes in immersive VR allowing users to freely move their heads to explore complex real-world scenes.
