This project brings 3DGS to scratch! --- Technically speaking gaussian splats aren't that complicated. They're layered ellipsoids "splats" which are carefully positioned to form a 3d model. We position splats, train them by viewing from different angles then reposition the splats and repeat. The hard part was optimizing the models to be 10-100x smaller whilst still retaining quality. --- This is my first project in almost 2 and a half years. I have been away focusing on career stuff. But I have always wanted to share this project.
