Volygon's Gaussian splat technology allows it to create highly accurate 3-D images for film production, VR, AR and other applications.
Save ArticleYou might have heard the term “splat” or “Gaussian splat” used recently in the XR space. Gaussian splatting is a rendering technique that has been around for a long time but has found a new application in XR when paired with neural radiance fields, commonly referred to as NeRFs. This technique blends many still images from different angles using neural networks and GPU-enabled AI acceleration to quickly create a 3-D model or 3-D scene.
Some of the most popular smartphone and web apps for this, such as Scaniverse, Luma AI and Polycam, are enabling people to easily create 3-D assets faster and cheaper than ever before. However, in my experience many of these have quality limitations, which is the compromise for being fast and cheap. It reminds me of the old adage: everyone would love to have a product that’s fast, cheap and good—but you can usually have only two of the three.
Volygon can create a scan of an interior or exterior set for Amazon Studios shows, then create a full photorealistic reproduction in 3-D of the set from the angles at which cameras have already captured footage. This enables the director and the studio to easily come back to any scene using that set and reshoot since the background is photorealistic and appears the same as if it were physically still there.
