base on Three.js-based implementation of 3D Gaussian splatting # 3D Gaussian splatting for Three.js Three.js-based implemetation of a renderer for [3D Gaussian Splatting for Real-Time Radiance Field Rendering](https://repo-sam.inria.fr/fungraph/3d-gaussian-splatting/), 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 the `.ply` files generated by the INRIA project, standard `.splat` files, or my own custom `.ksplat` files, which are a trimmed-down and compressed version of the original `.ply` files. When I started, web-based viewers were already available -- A WebGL-based viewer from [antimatter15](https://github.com/antimatter15/splat) and a WebGPU viewer from [cvlab-epfl](https://github.com/cvlab-epfl/gaussian-splatting-web) -- 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. <br> <br> ## 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 - Viewer can import `.ply` files, `.splat` files, or my custom compressed `.ksplat` files - Users can convert `.ply` or `.splat` files to the `.ksplat` file format - Allows a Three.js scene or object group to be rendered along with the splats - Built-in WebXR support - Supports 1st and 2nd degree spherical harmonics for view-dependent effects - Focus on optimization: - Splats culled prior to sorting & rendering using a custom octree - WASM splat sort: Implemented in C++ using WASM SIMD instructions - Partially GPU accelerated splat sort: Uses transform feedback to pre-calculate splat distances ## Tips - Progressively loaded `.ply` and `.splat` files will not have certain optimizations such as cache-optimized splat ordering applied to them. For optimial performance, convert these file types to `.ksplat` or load them non-progressively. - Converting your scenes to `.ksplat` will result in the fastest loading times since its format matches the internal format for splat data. - Scenes with large dimensions or high splat density will cause issues with the default settings. For those scenes, you can try a couple of things: - Set the viewer parameter `integerBasedSort` to `false` to force a slower, floating-point based splat sort. - Experiment with a larger value for viewer parameter `splatSortDistanceMapPrecision`, to adjust the precision for the distance map in the splat sort. Larger precision values will result in reduced performance, but often can alleviate visual artifacts that arise when the precision is too low. ## 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 `.ksplat` file format still needs work, especially around compression - Scenes with very large dimensions will probably crash (often with an `Index out of bounds` error from the splat sort). Changing `splatSortDistanceMapPrecision` or `integerBasedSort` will probably not help in those cases. ## Limitations Currently there are limits on the number of splats that can be rendered, and those limits depend mainly on the degree of spherical harmonics desired. Those limits are: | Spherical harmonics degree | Max splat count | --- | --- | `0` | ~ 16,000,000 | `1` | ~ 11,000,000 | `2` | ~ 8,000,000 Future work will include optimizing how splat data is packed into data textures, which will help increase these limits. ## Future work This is still very much a work in progress! There are several things that still need to be done: - Improve the way splat data is packed into data textures - Continue optimizing CPU-based splat sort - maybe try an incremental sort of some kind? - Support very large scenes (streaming sections & LOD) ## Online demo [https://projects.markkellogg.org/threejs/demo_gaussian_splats_3d.php](https://projects.markkellogg.org/threejs/demo_gaussian_splats_3d.php) ## 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 - `U` 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 - `P` Toggle point-cloud mode, where each splat is rendered as a filled circle - `=` Increase splat scale - `-` Decrease splat scale - `O` Toggle orthographic mode <br> ## Building from source 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 ``` 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](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](https://projects.markkellogg.org/downloads/gaussian_splat_data.zip) <br> <br> ## Installing as an NPM package If you don't want to build the library from source, it is also available as an NPM package. The NPM package does not come with the source code or demos that are available in the source repository. To install, run the following command: ``` npm install @mkkellogg/gaussian-splats-3d ``` <br> ## Basic Usage To run the built-in viewer: ```javascript import * as GaussianSplats3D from '@mkkellogg/gaussian-splats-3d'; const viewer = new GaussianSplats3D.Viewer({ 'cameraUp': [0, -1, -0.6], 'initialCameraPosition': [-1, -4, 6], 'initialCameraLookAt': [0, 4, 0] }); viewer.addSplatScene('<path to .ply, .ksplat, or .splat file>', { 'splatAlphaRemovalThreshold': 5, 'showLoadingUI': true, 'position': [0, 1, 0], 'rotation': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'scale': [1.5, 1.5, 1.5] }) .then(() => { viewer.start(); }); ``` Viewer parameters <br> | Parameter | Purpose | --- | --- | `cameraUp` | The natural 'up' vector for viewing the scene (only has an effect when used with orbit controls and when the viewer uses its own camera). Serves as the axis around which the camera will orbit, and is used to determine the scene's orientation relative to the camera. | `initialCameraPosition` | The camera's initial position (only used when the viewer uses its own camera). | `initialCameraLookAt` | The initial focal point of the camera and center of the camera's orbit (only used when the viewer uses its own camera). <br> Parameters for `addSplatScene()` <br> | Parameter | Purpose | --- | --- | `format` | Force the loader to assume the specified file format when loading a splat scene. This is useful when loading from a URL where there is no file extension. Valid values are defined in the `SceneFormat` enum: `Ply`, `Splat`, and `KSplat`. | `splatAlphaRemovalThreshold` | Tells `addSplatScene()` to ignore any splats with an alpha less than the specified value (valid range: 0 - 255). Defaults to `1`. | `showLoadingUI` | Displays a loading spinner and/or loading progress bar while the scene is loading. Defaults to `true`. | `position` | Position of the scene, acts as an offset from its default position. Defaults to `[0, 0, 0]`. | `rotation` | Rotation of the scene represented as a quaternion, defaults to `[0, 0, 0, 1]` (identity quaternion). | `scale` | Scene's scale, defaults to `[1, 1, 1]`. | `progressiveLoad` | Progressively load the scene's splat data and allow the scene to be rendered and viewed as the splats are loaded. Option is only valid for `addSplatScene()`, and not for `addSplatScenes()`. <br> `Viewer` can also load multiple scenes simultaneously with the `addSplatScenes()` function: ```javascript import * as GaussianSplats3D from '@mkkellogg/gaussian-splats-3d'; viewer.addSplatScenes([{ 'path': '<path to first .ply, .ksplat, or .splat file>', 'splatAlphaRemovalThreshold': 20 }, { 'path': '<path to second .ply, .ksplat, or .splat file>', 'rotation': [-0.14724434, -0.0761755, 0.1410657, 0.976020], 'scale': [1.5, 1.5, 1.5], 'position': [-3, -2, -3.2] } ]) .then(() => { viewer.start(); }); ``` The `addSplatScene()` and `addSplatScenes()` methods will accept the original `.ply` files, standard `.splat` files, and my custom `.ksplat` files. <br> ### 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 `threeScene` parameter to the constructor: ```javascript import * as GaussianSplats3D from '@mkkellogg/gaussian-splats-3d'; import * as THREE from 'three'; const threeScene = 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})); boxMesh.position.set(3, 2, 2); threeScene.add(boxMesh); const viewer = new GaussianSplats3D.Viewer({ 'threeScene': threeScene, }); viewer.addSplatScene('<path to .ply, .ksplat, 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 :) <br> A "drop-in" mode for the viewer is also supported. The `DropInViewer` class encapsulates `Viewer` and can be added to a Three.js scene like any other renderable: ```javascript import * as GaussianSplats3D from '@mkkellogg/gaussian-splats-3d'; import * as THREE from 'three'; const threeScene = new THREE.Scene(); const viewer = new GaussianSplats3D.DropInViewer({ 'gpuAcceleratedSort': true }); viewer.addSplatScenes([{ 'path': '<path to .ply, .ksplat, or .splat file>' 'splatAlphaRemovalThreshold': 5 }, { 'path': '<path to .ply, .ksplat, or .splat file>', 'rotation': [0, -0.857, -0.514495, 6.123233995736766e-17], 'scale': [1.5, 1.5, 1.5], 'position': [0, -2, -1.2] } ]); threeScene.add(viewer); ``` <br> ### Advanced 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 also use your own camera controls, as well as an your own instance of a Three.js `Renderer` or `Camera` The sample below shows all of these options: ```javascript import * as GaussianSplats3D from '@mkkellogg/gaussian-splats-3d'; import * as THREE from 'three'; 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.up = new THREE.Vector3().fromArray([0, -1, -0.6]).normalize(); camera.lookAt(new THREE.Vector3().fromArray([0, 4, -0])); const viewer = new GaussianSplats3D.Viewer({ 'selfDrivenMode': false, 'renderer': renderer, 'camera': camera, 'useBuiltInControls': false, 'ignoreDevicePixelRatio': false, 'gpuAcceleratedSort': true, `enableSIMDInSort`: true, 'sharedMemoryForWorkers': true, 'integerBasedSort': true, 'halfPrecisionCovariancesOnGPU': true, 'dynamicScene': false, 'webXRMode': GaussianSplats3D.WebXRMode.None, 'renderMode': GaussianSplats3D.RenderMode.OnChange, 'sceneRevealMode': GaussianSplats3D.SceneRevealMode.Instant, 'antialiased': false, 'focalAdjustment': 1.0, 'logLevel': GaussianSplats3D.LogLevel.None, 'sphericalHarmonicsDegree': 0, `enableOptionalEffects`: false, `inMemoryCompressionLevel`: 2 `freeIntermediateSplatData`: false }); viewer.addSplatScene('<path to .ply, .ksplat, 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: ```javascript function update() { requestAnimationFrame(update); viewer.update(); viewer.render(); } ``` Advanced `Viewer` parameters <br> | Parameter | Purpose | --- | --- | `selfDrivenMode` | If `false`, tells the viewer that you will manually call its `update()` and `render()` methods. Defaults to `true`. | `renderer` | Pass an instance of a Three.js `Renderer` to the viewer, otherwise it will create its own. Defaults to `undefined`. | `camera` | Pass an instance of a Three.js `Camera` to the viewer, otherwise it will create its own. Defaults to `undefined`. | `useBuiltInControls` | Tells the viewer to use its own camera controls. Defaults to `true`. | `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. Defaults to `false`. | `gpuAcceleratedSort` | Tells the viewer to use a partially GPU-accelerated approach to sorting splats. Currently this means pre-computation of splat distances from the camera is performed on the GPU. It is recommended that this only be set to `true` when `sharedMemoryForWorkers` is also `true`. Defaults to `false` on mobile devices, `true` otherwise. | `enableSIMDInSort` | Enable the usage of SIMD WebAssembly instructions for the splat sort. Default is `true`. | `sharedMemoryForWorkers` | Tells the viewer to use shared memory via a `SharedArrayBuffer` to transfer data to and from the sorting web worker. If set to `false`, it is recommended that `gpuAcceleratedSort` be set to `false` as well. Defaults to `true`. | `integerBasedSort` | Tells the sorting web worker to use the integer versions of relevant data to compute the distance of splats from the camera. Since integer arithmetic is faster than floating point, this reduces sort time. However it can result in integer overflows in larger scenes so it should only be used for small scenes. Defaults to `true`. | `splatSortDistanceMapPrecision` | Specify the precision for the distance map used in the splat sort algorithm. Defaults to 16 (16-bit). A lower precision is faster, but may result in visual artifacts in larger or denser scenes. | `halfPrecisionCovariancesOnGPU` | Tells the viewer to use 16-bit floating point values when storing splat covariance data in textures, instead of 32-bit. Defaults to `false`. | `dynamicScene` | Tells the viewer to not make any optimizations that depend on the scene being static. Additionally all splat data retrieved from the viewer's splat mesh will not have their respective scene transform applied to them by default. | `webXRMode` | Tells the viewer whether or not to enable built-in Web VR or Web AR. Valid values are defined in the `WebXRMode` enum: `None`, `VR`, and `AR`. Defaults to `None`. | `webXRSessionInit` | Tells the viewer to build a WebXR session with some options. Defaults with {}. For more details : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/XRSystem/requestSession#options | `renderMode` | Controls when the viewer renders the scene. Valid values are defined in the `RenderMode` enum: `Always`, `OnChange`, and `Never`. Defaults to `Always`. | `sceneRevealMode` | Controls the fade-in effect used when the scene is loaded. Valid values are defined in the `SceneRevealMode` enum: `Default`, `Gradual`, and `Instant`. `Default` results in a nice, slow fade-in effect for progressively loaded scenes, and a fast fade-in for non progressively loaded scenes. `Gradual` will force a slow fade-in for all scenes. `Instant` will force all loaded scene data to be immediately visible. | `antialiased` | When true, will perform additional steps during rendering to address artifacts caused by the rendering of gaussians at substantially different resolutions than that at which they were rendered during training. This will only work correctly for models that were trained using a process that utilizes this compensation calculation. For more details: https://github.com/nerfstudio-project/gsplat/pull/117, https://github.com/graphdeco-inria/gaussian-splatting/issues/294#issuecomment-1772688093 | `kernel2DSize` | A constant added to the size of the 2D screen-space gaussian kernel used in rendering splats. Default value is 0.3. | `focalAdjustment` | Hacky, non-scientific parameter for tweaking focal length related calculations. For scenes with very small gaussians & small details, increasing this value can help improve visual quality. Default value is 1.0. | `logLevel` | Verbosity of the console logging. Defaults to `GaussianSplats3D.LogLevel.None`. | `sphericalHarmonicsDegree` | Degree of spherical harmonics to utilize in rendering splats (assuming the data is present in the splat scene). Valid values are 0, 1, or 2. Default value is 0. | `enableOptionalEffects` | When true, allows for usage of extra properties and attributes during rendering for effects such as opacity adjustment. Default is `false` for performance reasons. These properties are separate from transform properties (scale, rotation, position) that are enabled by the `dynamicScene` parameter. | `inMemoryCompressionLevel` | Level to compress `.ply` or `.ksplat` files when loading them for direct rendering (not exporting to `.ksplat`). Valid values are the same as `.ksplat` compression levels (0, 1, or 2). Default is 0. | `optimizeSplatData` | Reorder splat data in memory after loading is complete to optimize cache utilization. Default is `true`. Does not apply if splat scene is progressively loaded. | `freeIntermediateSplatData` | When true, the intermediate splat data that is the result of decompressing splat bufffer(s) and used to populate data textures will be freed. This will reduces memory usage, but if that data needs to be modified it will need to be re-populated from the splat buffer(s). Defaults to `false`. | `splatRenderMode` | Determine which splat rendering mode to enable. Valid values are defined in the `SplatRenderMode` enum: `ThreeD` and `TwoD`. `ThreeD` is the original/traditional mode and `TwoD` is the new mode described here: https://surfsplatting.github.io/ | `sceneFadeInRateMultiplier` | Customize the speed at which the scene is revealed. Default is 1.0. <br> ### Creating KSPLAT files To convert a `.ply` or `.splat` file into the stripped-down and compressed `.ksplat` format, 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](http://127.0.0.1:8080/index.html). If you want to run the conversion programatically, run the following in a browser: ```javascript import * as GaussianSplats3D from '@mkkellogg/gaussian-splats-3d'; const compressionLevel = 1; const splatAlphaRemovalThreshold = 5; // out of 255 const sphericalHarmonicsDegree = 1; GaussianSplats3D.PlyLoader.loadFromURL('<path to .ply or .splat file>', onProgress, progressiveLoad, onProgressiveLoadSectionProgress, minimumAlpha, compressionLevel, optimizeSplatData, sphericalHarmonicsDegree, headers) .then((splatBuffer) => { GaussianSplats3D.KSplatLoader.downloadFile(splatBuffer, 'converted_file.ksplat'); }); ``` Both of the above methods will prompt your browser to automatically start downloading the converted `.ksplat` file. The third option is to use the included nodejs script: ``` node util/create-ksplat.js [path to .PLY or .SPLAT] [output file] [compression level = 0] [alpha removal threshold = 1] [scene center = "0,0,0"] [block size = 5.0] [bucket size = 256] [spherical harmonics level = 0] ``` For the nodejs script, it may be necessary to increase the heap size for larger scenes. Use the parameter `--max-old-space-size=[heap size in MB]` to do so: ``` node util/create-ksplat.js --max-old-space-size=8192 [... remaining arguments] ``` Currently supported values for `compressionLevel` are `0`, `1`, or `2`. `0` means no compression and `1` means compression of scale, rotation, position, and spherical harmonics coefficient values from 32-bit to 16-bit. `2` is similar to `1` except spherical harmonics coefficients are compressed to 8-bit. <br> ### CORS issues and SharedArrayBuffer By default, the `Viewer` class uses shared memory (via a typed array backed by a `SharedArrayBufffer`) to communicate with the web worker that sorts the splats. This mechanism presents a potential security issue that is outlined here: https://web.dev/articles/cross-origin-isolation-guide. Shared memory can be disabled by passing `false` for the `sharedMemoryForWorkers` parameter to the constructor for `Viewer`, but if you want to leave it enabled, a couple of extra CORS HTTP headers need to be present in the response from the server that is sent when loading the application. Without those headers set, you might see an error like the following in the debug console: ``` "DOMException: Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope': SharedArrayBuffer transfer requires self.crossOriginIsolated." ``` For the local demo I created a simple HTTP server (util/server.js) that sets those headers: ``` response.setHeader("Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy", "same-origin"); response.setHeader("Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy", "require-corp"); ``` #### CORS with Apache For Apache, you can edit the `.htaccess` file to allow CORS by adding the lines: ``` Header add Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy "same-origin" Header add Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy "require-corp" ``` Additionally you may need to require a secure connection to your server by redirecting all access via `http://` to `https://`. In Apache this can be done by updating the `.htaccess` file with the following lines: ``` RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L] ``` #### CORS with Vite For Vite, one popular option is to install the [vite-plugin-cross-origin-isolation](https://github.com/chaosprint/vite-plugin-cross-origin-isolation) plugin via `npm` and then add the following to your `vite.config.js` file. ```javascript import { defineConfig } from "vite"; export default defineConfig({ plugins: [ { name: "configure-response-headers", configureServer: (server) => { server.middlewares.use((_req, res, next) => { res.setHeader("Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy", "require-corp"); res.setHeader("Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy", "same-origin"); next(); }); }, }, ], }); ``` There are other ways to configure Vite to handle this referenced in issue [#41](https://github.com/mkkellogg/GaussianSplats3D/issues/41).
