In part 5 of his talk series, Google's Jon Barron argues 3D has tremendous value when making things in the physical world—engineering, manufacturing, construction—because there the 3D model is the final deliverable, not an intermediate representation. 3D vision's role is enabling us to leverage abundant 2D data. The unsplit talk is on YouTube.
