Abstract
Large industrial facilities such as particle accelerators and nuclear power plants are critical infrastructures for scientific research and industrial processes. These facilities are complex systems that not only require regular maintenance and upgrades but are often inaccessible to humans due to various safety hazards. Therefore, a virtual reality (VR) system that can quickly replicate real-world remote environments to provide users with a high level of spatial and situational awareness is crucial for facility maintenance planning. However, the exact 3D shapes of these facilities are often too complex to be accurately modeled with geometric primitives through the traditional rasterization pipeline. In this work, we develop Magic NeRF Lens, an interactive framework to support facility inspection in immersive VR using neural radiance fields (NeRF) and volumetric rendering. We introduce…
