High-Fidelity Neural Radiance Fields
Abstract: I will present three recent projects that focus on high-fidelity neural radiance fields for walkable VR spaces: VR-NeRF (SIGGRAPH Asia 2023) is an end-to-end system for the high-fidelity capture, model reconstruction, and real-time rendering of walkable spaces in virtual reality using neural radiance fields. To this end, we designed and built a custom multi-camera rig to [...]
Robots That Know When They Don’t Know
Abstract: Foundation models from machine learning have enabled rapid advances in perception, planning, and natural language understanding for robots. However, current systems lack any rigorous assurances when required to generalize to novel scenarios. For example, perception systems can fail to identify or localize unfamiliar objects, and large language model (LLM)-based planners can hallucinate outputs that [...]
