Instant4D: Turning Everyday Videos into 3‑D Worlds in Minutes

Ever wondered how a simple phone clip could become a walk‑through of a whole scene? Instant4D makes that magic happen – it takes ordinary, shaky video and builds a 4‑D model of the space in just a few minutes.
No fancy cameras, no depth sensors, just the footage you already have.
Imagine snapping a video of your living room and instantly getting a virtual tour you can explore from any angle, like turning a flat photo into a mini‑game world.
Scientists found a clever shortcut: they first map the scene with a fast visual SLAM technique, then trim away unnecessary data, shrinking the model to less than a tenth of its original size.
The result is a sleek 4‑D Gaussian representation that runs 30 times faster than older methods, letting you see the whole scene in under two minutes.
This breakthrough means creators, educators, and anyone with a smartphone can bring real places to life without waiting hours for processing.
The future of immersive video is here – and it’s faster than ever.
