A side-by-side comparison of our method and a mip-NeRF 360 baseline. The position of the camera for each picture is computed during structure-from-motion, and the sequence of pictures is smoothly interpolated into a flight path. We train each NeRF model on TPU or GPU accelerators, which provide different trade-off points.
