Side-by-side comparison of Lyra 2.0, Marble 1.1, and Matrix3D/Wan2.2-TI2V-5B for 3D Gaussian splat generation.

I think they are coming, should see a few pop up in 2026 for sure.

Ya Jakub really did an amazing job with Splatter, Martin and Will at SuperSplat also have something similar and works great. Only difference with us is that ours is light weight, native, support XR (VisionPro) and LOD structure is computed on load time, so you can load in any splat file within a couple of seconds.

Yup we compute the LOD structure on load within a couple of seconds using GPU compute shaders.
Arun_Kurian··on Was about to release a feature for free. Someone just released it for a fee
Deep and thoughtful suggestion, thanks.
Arun_Kurian··on Letting Mac users,of my app, share compute power. Feasible or problematic?
Thank you. Do you know of any legal challenges?

Its a 3D app for iOS and macOS. Thinking about doing the processing of 3D models in the macOS app.
Arun_Kurian··on Show HN: Built an AR Social Platform for 3D Artists with GPT in 2 Months
There are few very active communities out there for 3D artists to share their creations, so I feel like it's definitely something people need. Our App essentially lets anyone with a phone see these creations as well, expanding their visibility.

Additionally in near future we plan to expand to 3D printing community, by converting existing and new creations into 3D-printable formats. Which will increase the total market size significantly.

We referred the sample program from Apple. It clearly shows how to persist the world anchors, pretty amazing. Just google " Tracking specific points in world space "
