Let's talk about NeRFs - no, not the neon-colored foam dart blasters, but neural radiance fields, a technology that might just change the nature of images forever. In this episode of NVIDIA's AI Podcast recorded live at GTC, host Noah Kravitz speaks with Michael Rubloff, founder and managing editor of radiancefields.com, about radiance field-based technologies. NeRFs allow users to take a series of 2D images or video to create a hyperrealistic 3D model - something like a photograph of a scene, but that can be looked at from multiple angles. Tune in to learn more about the technology's creative and commercial applications and how it might transform the way people capture and experience the world.
