china is not slowing down and this one is insane.. Chinese researchers just open-sourced SLAM3R, it rebuilds a full 3D scene from a single regular video, in real time. no LiDAR, no depth sensor, no camera rig. one phone-grade video in, a 3D world out. > runs at 20+ FPS on a single GPU > monocular RGB, just walk around filming > feedforward neural net, no slow pose-optimization step > beats optimization-based methods on reconstruction benchmarks > handles long walkthroughs without drifting apart what makes this work: older methods solve for camera position frame by frame, which is why they're slow. SLAM3R skips that and regresses the 3D geometry directly. that's how it hits real time. 100% free and open source:
