Runway's new model generates a playable world at 24 frames a second.
Runway announced GWM Worlds 2 on 3 September, a system that makes interactive video in real time. It streams 720p footage with sound, and users can walk around, talk to characters and change scenes. Access is a research preview, so you have to ask Runway for it.
Why it mattersVideo models made clips you watch, while this one makes places you move inside. Game studios and robot trainers both need cheap worlds to practise in.
