GSTAR: Gaussian Surface Tracking and Reconstruction Contributions: • A... new framework for tracking and reconstructing dynamic scenes, combining 3D Gaussians and meshes to effectively manage changes in topology. • A method for Gaussian unbinding and surface re-meshing, allowing for the generation of new surfaces as topologies evolve. • A method for handling large or fast deformations of surfaces between frames using scene flow warping. Abstract (excerpt): However, tracking dynamic surfaces with 3D Gaussians remains challenging due to complex topology changes, such as surfaces appearing, disappearing, or splitting. To address these challenges, we propose GSTAR, a novel method that achieves photo-realistic rendering, accurate surface reconstruction, and reliable 3D tracking for general dynamic scenes with changing topology. Given multi-view captures as input, GSTAR binds Gaussians to mesh faces to represent dynamic objects. For surfaces with consistent topology, GSTAR maintains the mesh topology and tracks the meshes using Gaussians.show more

Another explanation for Oumuamua's unusual shape has been proposed... The asteroid Oumuamua, which flew through the Solar System in 2017, amazed scientists with its unprecedentedly elongated shape. It is 230 meters long and about 35 meters wide. Astronomers have never seen such objects before and tried to explain its origin. Oumuamua is the first known object to arrive from interstellar space. Its trajectory and speed left no doubt that it does not belong to the Solar System. The object rotated around its axis, changing its brightness, which made it possible to determine its size.show more

NVIDIA finally released Neuralangelo's source code! The model can... turn videos from any device into detailed 3D structures, fully replicating buildings, sculptures, or other real aworld objects or spaces virtually. Here's how it works: A model utilizes a 2D video with multiple angles of an object or scene. I selects frames from different viewpoints to understand depth, size, and shape. The AI creates an initial 3D representation, similar to a sculptor shaping a subject. The render is optimized to enhance details, like a sculptor refining texture. The outcome is a 3D object or scene suitable for virtual reality, digital twins, or robotics.show more

Massive performance improvement. This is a bit more of... technical post, but man do I love this stuff! Units navigate the map using a 'Navigation Mesh'. Before, I was using one giant nav mesh that spanned the entire map. The more objects that were placed (especially on a large map such as this 'RadarAttack' map designed by Syphotic | Steel Command), the larger the 'lag' would be after placement. You can see here that there is a massive frame drop and the navmesh doesnt update for almost 5 seconds. Now, there are a ton of tiny navmeshes that connect to one another, and together they cover the whole map. Now, when an object is placed, the navmesh will update instantly, because it no longer needs to parse through every object on the map (potentially thousands!!!). It only needs to parse through the objects that exist in the mini navmesh that the object was placed in (probably only 1-5 objects now!). Performance XP Boost +100!
