3D Gaussian splatting for Three.js

This repository contains a Three.js-based implemetation of a renderer for 3D Gaussian Splatting for Real-Time Radiance Field Rendering, a technique for generating 3D scenes from 2D images. Their project is CUDA-based and needs to run natively on your machine, but I wanted to build a viewer that was accessible via the web.

The 3D scenes are stored in a format similar to point clouds and can be viewed, navigated, and interacted with in real-time. This renderer will work with both the .ply files generated by the INRIA project, or my own custom .splat files, which are a trimmed-down and compressed version of those files.

When I started, web-based viewers were already available -- A WebGL-based viewer from antimatter15 and a WebGPU viewer from cvlab-epfl -- However no Three.js version existed. I used those versions as a starting point for my initial implementation, but as of now this project contains all my own code.

Highlights

  • Rendering is done entirely through Three.js
  • Code is organized into modern ES modules
  • Built-in viewer is self-contained so very little code is necessary to load and view a scene
  • Allows user to import .ply files for conversion to custom compressed .splat file format
  • Allows a Three.js scene or object group to be rendered along with the splats

Known issues

  • Splat sort runs on the CPU – would be great to figure out a GPU-based approach
  • Artifacts are visible when you move or rotate too fast (due to CPU-based splat sort)
  • Sub-optimal performance on mobile devices
  • Custom .splat file format still needs work, especially around compression

Future work

This is still very much a work in progress! There are several things that still need to be done:

  • Improve the method by which splat data is stored in textures
  • Properly incorporate spherical harmonics data to achieve view dependent lighting effects
  • Continue optimizing CPU-based splat sort - maybe try an incremental sort of some kind?
  • Add editing mode, allowing users to modify scene and export changes
  • Add WebXR compatibility
  • Support very large scenes and/or multiple splat files

Online demo

Controls

Mouse

  • Left click to set the focal point
  • Left click and drag to orbit around the focal point
  • Right click and drag to pan the camera and focal point

Keyboard

  • C Toggles the mesh cursor, showing the intersection point of a mouse-projected ray and the splat mesh

  • I Toggles an info panel that displays debugging info:

    • Camera position
    • Camera focal point/look-at point
    • Camera up vector
    • Mesh cursor position
    • Current FPS
    • Renderer window size
    • Ratio of rendered splats to total splats
    • Last splat sort duration
  • P Toggles a debug object that shows the orientation of the camera controls. It includes a green arrow representing the camera's orbital axis and a white square representing the plane at which the camera's elevation angle is 0.

  • Left arrow Rotate the camera's up vector counter-clockwise

  • Right arrow Rotate the camera's up vector clockwise


Building and running locally

Navigate to the code directory and run

npm install

Next run the build. For Linux & Mac OS systems run:

npm run build

For Windows I have added a Windows-compatible version of the build command:

npm run build-windows

如果想要build typescript的.d.ts:

npx -p typescript tsc ./src/index.js --declaration --allowJs --emitDeclarationOnly --outDir build/types

如果想要私有化部署的话需要把网站设置成https访问并在请求头里添加两个请求头:

'Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy': 'same-origin',
'Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy': 'require-corp'

To view the demo scenes locally run

npm run demo

The demo will be accessible locally at http://127.0.0.1:8080/index.html. You will need to download the data for the demo scenes and extract them into

<code directory>/build/demo/assets/data

The demo scene data is available here: https://projects.markkellogg.org/downloads/gaussian_splat_data.zip

Basic Usage

To run the built-in viewer:

const viewer = new GaussianSplats3D.Viewer({
    'cameraUp': [0, -1, -0.6],
    'initialCameraPosition': [-1, -4, 6],
    'initialCameraLookAt': [0, 4, 0],
    'ignoreDevicePixelRatio': false
});
viewer.loadFile('<path to .ply or .splat file>', {
    'splatAlphaRemovalThreshold': 5, // out of 255
    'halfPrecisionCovariancesOnGPU': true
})
.then(() => {
    viewer.start();
});

ignoreDevicePixelRatio tells the viewer to pretend the device pixel ratio is 1, which can boost performance on devices where it is larger, at a small cost to visual quality.
splatAlphaRemovalThreshold tells loadFile() to ignore any splats with an alpha less than the specified value.
halfPrecisionCovariancesOnGPU tells the viewer to use 16-bit floating point values for each element of a splat's 3D covariance matrix, instead of 32-bit.

As an alternative to using cameraUp to adjust to the scene's natural orientation, you can pass an orientation (and/or position) to the loadFile() method to transform the entire scene:

const viewer = new GaussianSplats3D.Viewer({
    'initialCameraPosition': [-1, -4, 6],
    'initialCameraLookAt': [0, 4, 0]
});
const orientation = new THREE.Quaternion();
orientation.setFromUnitVectors(new THREE.Vector3(0, -1, -0.6).normalize(), new THREE.Vector3(0, 1, 0));
viewer.loadFile('<path to .ply or .splat file>', {
    'splatAlphaRemovalThreshold': 5, // out of 255
    'halfPrecisionCovariancesOnGPU': true,
    'position': [0, 0, 0],
    'orientation': orientation.toArray(),
})
.then(() => {
    viewer.start();
});

The loadFile() method will accept the original .ply files as well as my custom .splat files.

Creating SPLAT files

To convert a .ply file into the stripped-down .splat format (currently only compatible with this viewer), there are several options. The easiest method is to use the UI in the main demo page at http://127.0.0.1:8080/index.html. If you want to run the conversion programatically, run the following in a browser:

const compressionLevel = 1;
const splatAlphaRemovalThreshold = 5; // out of 255
const plyLoader = new GaussianSplats3D.PlyLoader();
plyLoader.loadFromURL('<URL for .ply file>', compressionLevel, splatAlphaRemovalThreshold)
.then((splatBuffer) => {
    new GaussianSplats3D.SplatLoader(splatBuffer).downloadFile('converted_file.splat');
});

Both of the above methods will prompt your browser to automatically start downloading the converted .splat file.

The third option is to use the included nodejs script:

node util/create-splat.js [path to .PLY] [output file] [compression level = 0] [alpha removal threshold = 1]

Currently supported values for compressionLevel are 0 or 1. 0 means no compression, 1 means compression of scale, rotation, and position values from 32-bit to 16-bit.

Integrating THREE.js scenes

You can integrate your own Three.js scene into the viewer if you want rendering to be handled for you. Just pass a Three.js scene object as the 'scene' parameter to the constructor:

const scene = new THREE.Scene();

const boxColor = 0xBBBBBB;
const boxGeometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry(2, 2, 2);
const boxMesh = new THREE.Mesh(boxGeometry, new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({'color': boxColor}));
scene.add(boxMesh);
boxMesh.position.set(3, 2, 2);

const viewer = new GaussianSplats3D.Viewer({
    'scene': scene,
    'cameraUp': [0, -1, -0.6],
    'initialCameraPosition': [-1, -4, 6],
    'initialCameraLookAt': [0, 4, -0]
});
viewer.loadFile('<path to .ply or .splat file>')
.then(() => {
    viewer.start();
});

Currently this will only work for objects that write to the depth buffer (e.g. standard opaque objects). Supporting transparent objects will be more challenging :)

Custom options

The viewer allows for various levels of customization via constructor parameters. You can control when its update() and render() methods are called by passing false for the selfDrivenMode parameter and then calling those methods whenever/wherever you decide is appropriate. You can tell the viewer to not use its built-in camera controls by passing false for the useBuiltInControls parameter. You can also use your own Three.js renderer and camera by passing those values to the viewer's constructor. The sample below shows all of these options:

const renderWidth = 800;
const renderHeight = 600;

const rootElement = document.createElement('div');
rootElement.style.width = renderWidth + 'px';
rootElement.style.height = renderHeight + 'px';
document.body.appendChild(rootElement);

const renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer({
    antialias: false
});
renderer.setSize(renderWidth, renderHeight);
rootElement.appendChild(renderer.domElement);

const camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(65, renderWidth / renderHeight, 0.1, 500);
camera.position.copy(new THREE.Vector3().fromArray([-1, -4, 6]));
camera.lookAt(new THREE.Vector3().fromArray([0, 4, -0]));
camera.up = new THREE.Vector3().fromArray([0, -1, -0.6]).normalize();

const viewer = new GaussianSplats3D.Viewer({
    'selfDrivenMode': false,
    'renderer': renderer,
    'camera': camera,
    'useBuiltInControls': false
});
viewer.loadFile('<path to .ply or .splat file>')
.then(() => {
    requestAnimationFrame(update);
});

Since selfDrivenMode is false, it is up to the developer to call the update() and render() methods on the Viewer class:

function update() {
    requestAnimationFrame(update);
    viewer.update();
    viewer.render();
}
