If this model is so good at estimating depth from single image, shouldn't it also be able to take multiple images as input and estimate even better? But searching a bit it looks like this is supposed to be a single image to 3D only. I don't understand why it does not (can not?) work with multiple images.

Stuck at 90% forever..

Cool, is there a way to upload several photos of a room from different angles to fuse it all together? Is there an api?

Would be useful to have the website say something, _anything_ about what this is doing besides asking you to upload an image.

This is just Apple's tool plus a splat viewing library? Perhaps disingenuous to call "our web app"

This is the heavy lifting: https://github.com/apple/ml-sharp

Gets stuck at 84% each time - seems wasteful to let it get that far!

Thrown 2 images didn't nothing just a error

Conveniently fails to start processing

Its funny, always stucks on 90% till it fails with the error that another big image may be keeping the server busy.

I mean ok its a "demo" tho the funny thing is if you actually check the cli and requests, you clearly can see that the 3 stages the images walks through on "processing" are fake, its just doing 1 post request in the backend that runs while it traverses through the states, and at 90% it stops until (in theory) the request ends.

Tried a few random images and scenes, overall wasn't that impressive. Maybe I'm using the wrong kinds of input images or something, but for the most part once I moved more than a small amount, the rendering was mostly noise. To be fair, I didn't really expect much more.

Neat demo, but feels like things need to come quite a ways to make this interesting.
