What is Gaussian Splatting?

Gaussian splatting, also known as 3DGS, Gaussian splatting is a method for creating and rendering 3D scenes from images or video, using collections of 3D Gaussians—essentially, blobs of data placed in space with different orientations and densities to match the look of real objects.

Each gaussian is defined by its position, colour, transparency, and shape. The technique uses neural rendering principles, enabling lifelike results without the heavy processing.
