[x3d-public] Wed Nov 19 - X3D-AI Working Group Meeting

[GPU Group]

"Gaussian Splatting"
.ply files appear to deliver similar polygons as X3D IndexedTriangleSet
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PLY_(file_format)
https://www.web3d.org/documents/specifications/19775-1/V4.0/index.html
Methods to get .ply into x3d scene:
0. pre-process with non-browser tool to convert to x3d scene snippet for
inlining
1. Special new IndexedTriangleSetPly node with a url field
2. Proto containing i) first node IndexedTriangleSet, ii) Script node to
process ply into IndexedTriangleSet, and either:
a) SAI function for javascript to read an arbitrary file url into a blob
for processing from ply to IndexedTriangleSet by javascript
b) a new node type that reads an arbitrary file into an SFImage as a blob,
a route to move the SFImage to Script for processing from ply to
IndexedTriangleSet
Q. or is there another method that's easier / already working?
-Doug
