GAUSSIAN SPLATS

I am pushing 3D GAUSSIAN SPLATS as far as I can -- click on the Faded Yellow Links under the images below to see an interactive display of 3D Gaussian Splats:

 PROCESS

I converted 2D images into 3D Gaussian Splats with TripoSplat, and then composed them together in SuperSplat.  Then I downloaded the compositions/arrangements and hosted those on a server at Quelab so that I can show them to the public (see the Links above).


2D to 3D

I am generating 3D Gaussian Splats with TRIPOSPLAT from my 2D drawings and images, and saving them as SPZ files:

I am using TRIPOSPLAT in ComfyUI locally on a computer at Quelab with 16 GBs of VRAM.  TripoSplat is really easy to install (unlike other ComfyUI programs).  Moreover the generation process is fast and free this way:

2D to 3D Gaussian Splat


In the example above I uploaded the 2D image on the left to TripoSplat in ComfyUI and generated both the animation and the 3D Gaussian Splat for download -- 260819J.SPZ.


Composing the 3D Gaussian Splats

I uploaded the individual Gaussian Splats and arranged them online in the SuperSplat Editor.




I first did this on July 6, 2026 with the arrangement below:



At the time using SuperSplat overheated and slowed my laptop down really bad -- so
