@NVIDIAAI recently released InstantSplat which allows for fast 3D reconstruction, so I decided I wanted to make a demo of it using @rerundotio and @Gradio! It's one of the fastest ways to go from sparse images -> Gaussian splat I've come across. https://t.co/KIK5a7yCUP

@Scobleizer Unexpected, wonder how this with turn out

[Ben @monoganog]

@_lightmapper @unitygames Why not move to URP?

Building a drag-and-drop editor for creating @discord games and Activities, all within Discord.

Yes, right inside Discord 😱

Think of it as a mix between Webflow and Roblox, to create games and community experiences on Discord.

@3m4lkALT @studioanisa It is! It’s called nine slicing and you need the sprite package to make it work. Very useful

@emmanuel_2m @albn @Scenario_gg Impressive stuff! Some of the best AI generated 3D models I’ve seen

[Ben @monoganog]

@yannoid That’s so cool
