Meshtron provides a simple and scalable, data-driven solution for generating intricate, artist-like meshes of up to 64K faces at 1024-level coordinate resolution. This is over an order of magnitude higher face count and 8x higher coordinate resolution compared to existing methods.
A model that can generate the next frame of a 3D scene based on the previous frame(s) and user input, trained on video data, and running in real-time.
World models enable AI systems to simulate and reason about their environments, pushing forward autonomous decision-making and real-world problem-solving.
The key insight is that by training on video data, these models learn not just how to generate images, but also:
the physics of our world (objects fall down, water flows, etc)
how objects look from different angles (that chair should look the same as you walk around it)
how things move and interact (a ball bouncing off a wall, a character walking on sand)
basic spatial understanding (you can’t walk through walls)
Some companies, like World Labs, are taking a hybrid approach: using World Models to generate static 3D representations that can then be rendered using traditional 3D engines (in this case, Gaussian Splatting). This gives you the best of both worlds: the creative power of AI generation with the multiview consistency and performance of traditional rendering.

In photography, exposure value (EV) is a number that represents a combination of a camera’s shutter speed and f-number, such that all combinations that yield the same exposure have the same EV (for any fixed scene luminance).
The EV concept was developed in an attempt to simplify choosing among combinations of equivalent camera settings. Although all camera settings with the same EV nominally give the same exposure, they do not necessarily give the same picture. EV is also used to indicate an interval on the photographic exposure scale. 1 EV corresponding to a standard power-of-2 exposure step, commonly referred to as a stop
EV 0 corresponds to an exposure time of 1 sec and a relative aperture of f/1.0. If the EV is known, it can be used to select combinations of exposure time and f-number.
Note EV does not equal to photographic exposure. Photographic Exposureis defined as how much light hits the camera’s sensor. It depends on the camera settings mainly aperture and shutter speed. Exposure value (known as EV) is a number that represents theexposure setting of the camera.
Thus, strictly, EV is not a measure of luminance (indirect or reflected exposure) or illuminance (incidentl exposure); rather, an EV corresponds to a luminance (or illuminance) for which a camera with a given ISO speed would use the indicated EV to obtain the nominally correct exposure. Nonetheless, it is common practice among photographic equipment manufacturers to express luminance in EV for ISO 100 speed, as when specifying metering range or autofocus sensitivity.
The exposure depends on two things: how much light gets through the lenses to the camera’s sensor and for how long the sensor is exposed. The former is a function of the aperture value while the latter is a function of the shutter speed. Exposure value is a number that represents this potential amount of light that could hit the sensor. It is important to understand that exposure value is a measure of how exposed the sensor is to light and not a measure of how much light actually hits the sensor. The exposure value is independent of how lit the scene is. For example a pair of aperture value and shutter speed represents the same exposure value both if the camera is used during a very bright day or during a dark night.
Each exposure value number represents all the possible shutter and aperture settings that result in the same exposure. Although the exposure value is the same for different combinations of aperture values and shutter speeds the resulting photo can be very different (the aperture controls the depth of field while shutter speed controls how much motion is captured).
EV 0.0 is defined as the exposure when setting the aperture to f-number 1.0 and the shutter speed to 1 second. All other exposure values are relative to that number. Exposure values are on a base two logarithmic scale. This means that every single step of EV – plus or minus 1 – represents the exposure (actual light that hits the sensor) being halved or doubled.
