Excited to present our #CVPR2025 ✨Highlight Paper "Blurred LiDAR for Sharper 3D." We introduce a method for 3D Gaussian surfel reconstruction that combines RGB images with diffuse (blurred) LiDARs. Surprisingly, we find that these blurred LiDARs, often used as simple proximity sensors, can improve reconstruction quality over conventional mobile LiDARs for robust handheld scanning in challenging scenes. 📍 Come by Sunday, June 15 · ExHall D · Poster #77 🔗 Website: nikhilbehari.github.io/bls3d…

Looking forward to the 2nd Workshop on Neural Fields Beyond Conventional Cameras @CVPR! Call for papers is now open! #CVPR2025

Congratulations to Professor @raskarmit, head of the Media Lab’s @cameraculture research group, on receiving the 2024 @The_RPS Award for Imaging Science! This award recognizes sustained excellence or a notable contribution to the advancement or application of imaging science. media.mit.edu/posts/ramesh-r…

LPMs and AgentTorch are making AI-driven societal modeling a reality! Follow and contribute to the project: github.com/AgentTorch/AgentT… Learn more: Attend this talk by @ayushchopra96 events.canonical.com/event/8… this Saturday!

Congratulations to @cameraculture student Nikhil Behari on receiving the 2024 NASA Space Technology Graduate Research Opportunities (NSTGRO) Fellowship in support of his doctoral research proposal! media.mit.edu/posts/nikhil-b…

Try out for yourself at: github.com/AgentTorch/AgentT… tl;dr: trick is think beyond traditional agents using our differentiable ABMs LLM archetypes bonus: even with high-variance individuals, you can reproduce census-statistics surprisingly well! learn more: lpm.media.mit.edu/join

We already do that! GitHub.com/AgentTorch/AgentT…. Most recently, we helped the NZ govt track measles spread over their 5 million citizens and also helped design immunization programs for over 100 million people during Covid-19 Tl;Dr: think beyond agents (checkout our Archetypes)

Not really. We simulate 8.4 million agents to represent NYC for $1000 dollars. Trick is to think beyond agents (see our work: GitHub.com/AgentTorch/AgentT…)

This is amazing work from our group at @MIT @medialab. AgentTorch scales generative agent simulations to million-size populations. Bringing AI to health, energy and supply chains! Follow the project: github.com/AgentTorch/AgentT… Join us: lpm.media.mit.edu/join #AI #LLM #Agents

🚨 🚨 🚨 The Neural Fields Beyond Conventional Cameras workshop at #ECCV2024 is accepting papers and extended abstracts for poster and oral presentation! We welcome papers submitted to @eccvconf, whether accepted or rejected. Deadline: August 9, 2024

📢 Our ECCV '24 paper 📢 DecentNeRFs: Decentralized Neural Radiance Fields from @MIT @medialab and @Rice on scaling NeRFs to crowdsourced photos. Private Decentralized: We protect the user's personal content while slashing server computation by 10,000x. zaidtas.github.io/decentnerf… 🧵

Congratulations to Prof. @raskarmit and the @cameraculture research group on receiving a Test of Time Award at #SIGGRAPH2024, for their 2013 paper "Femto-Photography: Capturing and Visualizing the Propagation of Light"! media.mit.edu/posts/camera-c…

Congrats to Charles Lu and Siddharth Somasundaram, graduate students in the Media Lab’s Camera Culture research group, on being selected for the @NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program (NSF-GRFP)! media.mit.edu/posts/camera-c…
