Michael Rubloff
In a extremely exciting and long clamored for update, nerfstudio has announced V0.1.16. This contains updates to Scene Cropping, Basic RealityCapture Support, Improved camera path management, and most importantly, a Blender VFX add on.
Along with the update came a sample video showcasing the extreme potential of the application. It is easy to conceptualize the effect this add on will have on NeRF and VFX creators. Today marks another large step forwards for the NeRF community.
Congratulations, nerfstudio team!
