Showcase

Nine scenes from Blender's demo files, Poly Haven and Fab, each trained with SplatPilot at Standard quality (up to 1 million splats) on an RTX 4070. Drag the line to compare the splat with the Cycles render it was trained from. Next to it, the splat moves.

Score is the PSNR on test images the training never saw. Time runs from the click on Create Splat to the finished splat, rendering included.
