I think a bigger problem is how much computational resources NERF models need. From the paper,
"Our model, Mip-NeRF 360, and our 'mip-NeRF 360 + iNGP' baseline were all trained on 8 NVIDIA Tesla V100-SXM2-16GB GPUs."
Even with all that, it takes almost an hour to train. A developer would need to do this for every scene, which may make it unfeasible for indies, those who would benefit the most from NERF in gaming.
The better question is how many person hours would it take to model a scene like that with alternative approaches, and can a NeRF be used to create outputs that could be used in a game engine?
