Yes splats do reflections
- cyber_kinetist 4mo agoYes but in a weird way (at least on vanilla 3DGS) - it duplicates the splats on the mirror side. Vanilla 3DGS cannot do any specular lighting or reflections - the color is basically baked in the splats. There's some active research going on to create richer Gaussian splats so we can do shading (or even ray tracing on it) - but haven't seen anyone using in production yet.
- monkpit 4mo agoIs that weird, though? I thought that was a pretty common way to do reflections, but I’m not that well-versed in the latest tech in this space.
