arXiv:2606.30380v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present RenderFormer++, a scalable and physically grounded feed-forward neural rendering framework for global illumination in mesh scenes. Existing Transformer-based neural rendering methods such as RenderFormer achieve promising cross-scene generalization, but suffer from limited physical consistency and poor scalability due to the quadratic attention complexity of triangle-level tokenization. To address these issues, we introduce Physics-Informed Transport Guidance (PITG), which embeds rendering-equation inductive biases into the attention
The development builds on existing Transformer-based neural rendering methods, addressing their limitations in physical consistency and scalability, which are critical for advancing realistic digital environments.
This research introduces improvements in neural rendering that could significantly enhance the fidelity and scalability of virtual worlds and AI interaction with them, enabling more realistic and interactive simulations.
The ability to generate physically accurate global illumination in real-time within complex mesh scenes at scale improves the quality and efficiency of synthetic data generation and virtual environment creation.
