Just experienced streamable 4D Gaussian Splatting content on Apple Vision Pro… and it's insane 🤯 Seeing life sized volumetric people performing right in my room is kind of mind blowing. It really feels like real humans are standing in front of you. And it streams online just like regular... video. No massive downloads. No waiting. Awesome work by @gracia_vr 👏 Apple Vision Pro + Gaussian Splatting is one of the most futuristic things I’ve seen in a long time.show more

It's realistic enough that for a moment I got pissed off at you when you reached out and tried to poke her

😂

this is going to get weird fast isn't it

You can watch these volumetric videos on Meta Quest 3 and other headsets directly in the browser through the Gracia website: Apple Vision Pro also supports viewing them in-browser, but for the full spatial experience, we’ll have to wait for the Gracia app coming soon.

You just know the porn industry will be rubbing their hands!

Wow, the non-porn applications of this are really going to have difficulty explaining why they need the equipment (when it's clearly 90% for porn)

@Orwelian84 Oh man this is just gonna turn into a popular porn feature isn't it

You'll be on 4D VR Pornhub by midnight, don't lie.

These people are entirely motivated by trying to recreate the Ana De Armas Joi character from blade runner 2049

Are we all thinking now about the same thing?

You know what this means. Nude people in your living room

This is just the beginning. Soon films will be made for VR, we will sit in a room watching a film and the actors will walk around us.

Imagine in 12 months, AI generated 4d Gaussian Splats in your Pixel Glasses

All right, team, I can build a camera setup to capture these with my pocket change and some elbow grease. Who wants to rent a studio and manage "models" for it?

Does the audio follow perspective, or is it effectively stereo, no matter where you stand in the scene?

Yes, Spatial Audio, better than regular stereo

pretty cool. AVP is obnoxious for that use case i think (great for 100% new environments though). best value for money now is meta quest 3? would it be any good?

Meta Quest 3 is awesome for its price 👏

Looks cool. Could you explain what 4D Gaussian Splatting is?

It’s basically a new type of volumetric video. Instead of watching a flat 2D recording, the person is reconstructed in full 3D space from many cameras, so when you move your head in VR/AR, you naturally see depth and perspective changes like they’re actually standing in front of you. The “4D” part means it’s animated over time, not just a static 3D scan. So it feels somewhere between normal video and a real hologram.

Cool

@rodamn Can you, umm?

Imagine being on a moon or Mars and having entertainment when you're bored or instructions when you need to fix something. Really awesome capability. I've seen stuff like this years ago, but the fidelity now is so much better.

Yeah this stuff is really cool. I tried it on my quest 3 a month ago. Def recommend experiencing it. It's neat that it can be streamed too. Some of the content on there can only be watched after downloading though.

Imagine if calls in the future were like this

damn so Gaussian Splats are how we're gonna end up with Star Wars holograms

Making splats have been my hobby for years. @LumaLabsAI - What have they done now?

*Cough*p*cough* orn *cough*

Welche App ist das ?

this is kind of scary

now this is how we do online virtual classrooms

I need to remember everyone that the internet is for porn

something i believed @pika_labs would have entered

how is this different than the existing apple immersive content filmed with multi cameras? it was already very very 3D

Completely different things and results. Apple Immersive Video camera / 4DGS studio with multiple cameras.

This during "Bieberchella" would've been amazing.

what's the size of this 4d splat?

Were about to be able to goon in ways david bradburry couldnt even predict

😎 AVP hope they will be available to buy in Denmark soon
