I'm a PhD candidate in the TUM Visual Computing and AI Lab under the supervision of Prof. Matthias Nießner. Before starting my PhD I studied Informatics (M.Sc.) at TUM and Computer Science (B.Sc.) at TUHH.

I'm mainly interested in scene reconstruction, novel view synthesis, and 3D generation.

LinPrim: Linear Primitives for Differentiable Volumetric Rendering
Nicolas von Lützow, Matthias Nießner
NeurIPS, 2025
project page / arXiv

We develop a differentiable volumetric rendering framework that uses transparent polyhedral primitives to represent scenes and render them in real-time. The primitives offer a bounded and compact representation that improves performance on specular areas and achieves better depth estimates while remaining compatible with advances developed for 3D Gaussians.
