Jack Wang is the CEO of Kiri engine a powerful #3d scanning app for Android, iOS (and web browsers!). I have experienced Kiri myself and trust me, there some key features that makes it different from anything else on the market. Today we will dive into the world of #gaussiansplatting with Jack discussing:
- Some of the current limitations of Gaussian splatting
- The benefits of Gaussian Splatting compared to photogrammetry and the verticals benefitting from it
- Some of the unique features that make Kiri engine the must-have scanning app for Gaussian Splatting
- A new path the team has taken after making an unexpected discovery
