Have been throwing CC-licensed drone videos through Polycam’s implementation of Gaussian splatting.
With about 100 resized frames selected from this: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mistail,_aerial_video.webm
It gives this: https://poly.cam/capture/1b6abb91-bf29-4a1b-9483-678f8749073d
@vruba I tried ~100 frames of a couple videos landing into Seattle and it had a really hard time. But it's beautiful! https://poly.cam/capture/3bea75b3-c6bd-4ca0-b837-c076af74a4f6 and https://poly.cam/capture/3bea75b3-c6bd-4ca0-b837-c076af74a4f6
@ian I’ve seen that long smear failure mode a lot, and also a flat state where it basically paints one photo in 2D with minimal texture. Here’s an example, to be deleted in like 30 seconds: https://poly.cam/capture/06c0ac93-0719-4a45-acf6-a86170700eed
