Introducing MegaSaM! Accurate, fast, & robust structure + camera estimation from casual monocular videos of dynamic scenes! MegaSaM outputs camera parameters and consistent video depth, scaling to long videos with unconstrained camera paths and complex scene dynamics!

Introducing 👀Stereo4D👀 A method for mining 4D from internet stereo videos. It enables large-scale, high-quality, dynamic, *metric* 3D reconstructions, with camera poses and long-term 3D motion trajectories. We used Stereo4D to make a dataset of over 100k real-world 4D scenes.

We've released our paper "Generating 3D-Consistent Videos from Unposed Internet Photos"! Video models like Luma generate pretty videos, but sometimes struggle with 3D consistency. We can do better by scaling them with 3D-aware objectives. 1/N page: genechou.com/kfcw
