Score: 6.7/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 3, Utility: 5)
A browser-based tool that converts a set of object photos into a Gaussian splat using the DA3 Small depth model, running entirely client-side so photos never leave the user's machine. It combines depth estimation and Gaussian splatting in a WebAssembly/Rust pipeline, which is a technically ambitious feat for in-browser inference.
Target audience: 3D graphics developers, machine learning engineers, researchers exploring client-side neural rendering
