Five years ago, I've used common software to do this. I had to take hundreds of pictures of a scene, getting as many angles and details possible. Then when you pass it to the computer. Stitching it all together took well beyond 24 hours.
Now that I had a 3d model of the scene, I had to spend countless hours cleaning it up to make sure it was useable. Maybe in the last 5 years, things have improved.
But this demo used 4 pictures. And apparently, it rendered the final image in seconds. That's what's new.
