So cool! I work at Polycam and we're going to enable video upload directly on the web next week, so you'll be able to skip the section where you have to extract the frames in AE 🎥We're also going to add upload for Gaussian Splatting, so you can just upload and share the ones that you create in Blender with the addon (there's an option to export it in the addon UI)

Awesome :) I’ve been a big fan of Polycam for a while now. I used them for 3D scanning in the past

That’s good to hear. Polycams implementation of Gaussian splat seems to work very well with more data. I took aprox 250 images and uploaded to both luma ai and Polycam … Polycam output shows more scene data !! I’m excited by this.. im not sure why the render engine in both blender and unreal are not that great .. and I know that has nothing to do with you guys. The visual quality of thr splats on the web is not what we get in any of the engines that we use.

This is the most straightforward tutorial I've found that includes everything I wanted! Thank you. I think gaussian splats are the next big step in archiving memories and I could foresee it getting exponentially accessible as the tools improve. Super exciting stuff, so many interesting applications.

for people who dont have After Effects to make image sequence, Blender can do it with its video editor, and it's faster to render than AE.

Do you know any way to export and use edited clouds in Unreal Engine? I have the plugin for 3D Gaussian Splatting for Unreal Engine, but the Stanford PLY that Blender generates is not compatible. I want to edit the clouds in Blender (since it's impossible currently in UE), then transfer it to UE, but I can't find any way to EXPORT a compatible PLY to UE again.
