From Point Clouds to Photorealism: How PRoGS Advances the State of Neural Rendering

computer.org Enrique Quezada 2026-02-04 00:34:42

What if a real-time automated decision-making process needs a computer vision system to produce photorealistic visuals in a mere fraction of a second? In many cases, this requires too much computational power — if it’s even possible at all. When computer vision uses 3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS), it provides a photorealistic image, but the process takes far too long.

Wi-Fi in the US Could Get Worse Under Trump's New Law

The Federal Communications Commission has regained its authority to hold spectrum auctions and could use that power to take spectrum away from Wi-Fi networks and license it to mobile carriers AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. As we previously wrote, the Senate budget bill pitched by Ted Cruz (R-Texas) called for at least 800 MHz to be auctioned and allowed part of it to be taken from the 6 GHz band that's being used to boost speeds in the new generation of Wi-Fi networks.
