Platforms

aiMotive is bringing relightable Gaussian splatting to aiSim 6, using PBR splatting to dynamically relight 3DGS digital twins for automotive simulation without retraining.

Arrival.Space 2026.6 adds Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles and a Splat/Tile Cropper to composite Gaussian splats into streamed map data, plus opt-in WebGPU.

Scaniverse now supports USDZ export for Physical AI simulations.

Notch 2026.2 adds native Gaussian splatting import and rendering, treating splats as a lit, deformable, ray-traced object inside its real time GPU renderer.

YaGS is Yandex's open-source Unreal Engine plugin bringing Gaussian splatting into UE5 levels with correct depth compositing so splats and meshes mutually occlude.

Nuke 17.1 open beta extends Foundry's 3D Gaussian splatting toolset with animated splats via GeoSequencer, SPLAT file export, splat relighting, and a Hydra 2.0 viewport.

OctaneRender 2026.4 adds SPZ v4 Gaussian splat support, cuts splat GPU memory, fixes rendering of 30M+ splat scenes, and brings Neural Radiance Cache to macOS.

NVIDIA has released V0.5 of fVDB, bringing several updates, including multi-GPU gaussian splatting training and rendering stack with gsplat-parity rasterization inside the core.

ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 5.1 adds 3D analysis; shadow, slice, line of sight, and elevation profiles to Gaussian splat layers, moving them toward parity with other 3D layers.

GSOPs brings native Gaussian splatting to TouchDesigner, loading and rendering .ply/.spz splats through node operators with particle system and shader effects, in beta now.

The free gaussian splatting app now works with many more iPhones.

COLMAP 4.1.0 adds Caspar, a GPU bundle adjustment backend up to two orders of magnitude faster than Ceres, plus native equirectangular SfM for 360 captures.
