"NeRF: Transforming Eye Reflections into 3D Room Models"
Researchers at the University of Maryland have developed a method to reconstruct and render 3D scenes by capturing and analyzing the reflections off a person's eyes. Using a specially trained AI visual rendering algorithm called NeRF, the team was able to extract a three-dimensional model of the surroundings from the reflected light. By removing iris artifacts and exploiting cornea geometry, the method effectively reconstructed scenes from multiple images. The technique was tested on human eyes as well as eye reflections from music videos, demonstrating its potential for capturing the observer's perspective in various scenarios.
