Since their introduction in 2020, Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs) have taken the computer vision community by storm. They provide a multi-view representation of a scene or object that is ideal for eXtended Reality (XR) applications and for creative endeavors such as virtual production, as well as change detection operations in geospatial analytics. The computational cost of these generative AI models is quite high, however, and the construction of cloud pipelines to generate NeRFs is neccesary to realize their potential in client applications. In this paper, we present pipelines on a high performance academic computing cluster and compare it with a pipeline implemented on Microsoft Azure. Along the way, we describe some uses of NeRFs in enabling novel user interaction scenarios.

Predictive modelling of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) remains fragmented across analytical theories, finite-geometry solvers and disconnected simulation workflows. These disparate approaches must be unified into an executable framework to advance quantitative TENG research.Here we introduce a charge-defined modelling framework and implement it as TENG-CLAW, a physics-governed platform for traceable TENG simulation. The framework establishes a self-consistent electrostatic hierarchy in which triboelectric charges, pre-charging charges and compensating electrode charges serve as defining state variables.This hierarchy connects the infinite plate analytical limit for near-uniform fields with finite-geometry numerical formulations required for edge-dominated devices. Built on this basis, TENG-CLAW converts user-defined research requests into physically admissible simulation tasks, so that generated outputs are tied to explicit charge states, boundary conditions, solver routes and reusable artifacts across spatial, temporal, field-level, comparative and reporting workflows. This work establishes a rigorous computational basis for interpreting TENG mechanisms and provides reproducible research infrastructure for simulation and physics-guided device design.
