Can you show the setup? (Can we do a Gaussian Splat of the setup of the photograph for the Gaussian Splat of the Strawberry?)

I just posted some images.. I have actually done my studio, (quality is.. let's say painterly ;-): https://superspl.at/scene/0a3916cd

The splat of the studio has the perfect amount of detail. It looks like you're streaming from the camera direct to the computer usually? How do you check the progress / quality while capturing? Seeing the (great) results makes me more curious about the process of creating now.

Beautiful. What I love about gaussian splats is the way they degrade - instead of a hard cutoff or LoD changing spheres into cubes etc., they get increasingly "dreamy" - the basic idea is still there, just less detailed. Take for example this scene: https://superspl.at/scene/e721ea7c If you navigate closer to the trees, things around you become blurry - as if the very fabric of reality unraveled.

Is there a specific name for this “dreaminess” effect?

Thanks! I use the computer only to setup the shot, adjust lighting make test stacks of different angles. If everything is good, I disconnect and capture to the memory stick. During the shooting I only adjust the beginning or end of the rail a bit, so everything is in focus at some point. Triggering (manually) the rotary disk still happens from the computer.

I read [1], but I still don't quite know what I'm looking at. My guess is a 3D model reconstructed from lots of detailed pictures? [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_splatting

This video explains how Gaussian splatting works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8yRlA7jqEQ

This was great, thanks for sharing

Just wow! As I scrolled through the website, I was even more impressed with this one though! https://superspl.at/scene/c67edb74

I just wanted to do a quick size comparison...

If I'm reading Chrome right, that's 171 MB, for the website, and the data.

If I'm doing the math right, that's 40 seconds worth of the bandwidth from Netflix, at its highest rate.
