splat

This project is a Rust implementation of a Gaussian Splatting Viewer, inspired by the OpenGL shader code found here.

The project was first prototyped in a Jupyter notebook to validate the approach and algorithms. After the prototype was successful, the project was then implemented in Rust using the euc software rendering crate.

Getting Started

To get a local copy up and running, follow these simple steps.

Prerequisites

• Rust: You can download Rust from the official website.
• Some pre-trained 3D Gaussian splat models. Some examples:
