I don't even have a photograph of my uni dorm room. 🧑🎓 This guy scanned his as a 3D Gaussian splat. Every poster, every bit of desk clutter, a moment frozen in time. Imagine revisiting that room decades from now. SuperSplat lets you explore and share 3D scenes like these. [1/2]

Voxel collision in SuperSplat is a game changer. 🧊 It turns any Gaussian splat into accurate 5 cm voxels, automatically. It's super-compressed and far more efficient than a mesh, yet solid enough to climb stairs and walk crossbeams. Free & open source from PlayCanvas 👇

This isn’t video. It’s a photorealistic 3D Gaussian splat of a 15th–16th century church near Bergamo. 🇮🇹 Half a GB of data, but it loads instantly in the browser (thanks to the @PlayCanvas Engine). Digital heritage and virtual tourism are about to change forever.
