The model seems to be having a hard time with the marble floor in the quire (low resolution), is this because of its reflection?
The Keith Haring altarpiece is a really cool surprise! It's unfortunate that this tour makes it very difficult to see. Really not a fan of this "on rails" presentation style. I understand the angles matter when viewing a splat, but come on.
You can also walk freely FPS style with WASD and mouse-dragging to look around.
Bad mobile support is a sore spot for any "Show HN" announcement.
I bet there's a story there.
Gsplat is indeed the future for graphics. Handling much more detail in mobile hardware spec. Check this work too. (Not mine) https://demo.immersivetech.ch/chateau-la-sarraz/
It's like seeing the promise of Google Street View realized.
The technology is in such an early stage and it already slaps this hard.
Wonder what the next steps are for this tech? "Un-splatting" optimizations to convert things like flat surfaces into classic rigid textured geometry? Factoring the lighting away from the geometry? Filling the pipeline with AI tooling - segmentation to remove the "variables" like humans automatically, generative AI to fill in the missing non-semantic details based on the surroundings, more generative AI to "port" the data from things like public high resolution images of plaques or other undercaptured details into the scene?
Seeing this kind of reconstruction now makes me very excited for what the 3D environments of the future are going to be like.
I like the moving cars. They're copies of the stopped ones right? Adds a good effect.
Did you animate the cars separately? That really did a lot to add to the immersion (and the sound effects too). If nothing moved I think the effect would be significantly diminished.
The cathedral is the star of the show, but I found myself more fascinated by all the incidental little details captured in this. Like the trees and the buildings nearby, the basketball court, the little solar panel on the side, the apartment towers. It's like seeing the promise of Google Street View realized.

Some kind of day/night toggle would have been another great feature...but again, it didn't make the final cut of the experience. Maybe a HD Remix is needed. :o)
