Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) give rise to learning-based 3D reconstruction methods widely used in industrial applications. Although prevalent methods achieve considerable improvements in small-scale scenes, accomplishing reconstruction in complex and large-scale scenes is still challenging. First, the background in complex scenes shows a large variance among different views. Second, the current inference pattern, $i.e.$, a pixel only relies on an individual camera ray, fails to capture contextual information. To solve these problems, we propose to enlarge the ray perception field and build up the sample points interactions. In this paper, we design a novel inference pattern that encourages a single camera ray possessing more contextual information, and models the relationship among sample points on each camera ray. To hold contextual information,a camera ray in our proposed method can render a patch of pixels simultaneously. Moreover, we replace the MLP in neural radiance field models with distance-aware convolutions to enhance the feature propagation among sample points from the same camera ray. To summarize, as a torchlight, a ray in our proposed method achieves rendering a patch of image. Thus, we call the proposed method, Torch-NeRF. Extensive experiments on KITTI-360 and LLFF show that the Torch-NeRF exhibits excellent performance.
