Скачать или смотреть 3D Gaussian Ray-Tracing in Houdini using USD and MaterialX

In this video I'm presenting my passion project: 3D Gaussian Ray-Tracing using USD and MaterialX - rendered in SideFX Software Karma CPU and XPU (20.5) ✨

I started the research on this in my spare time right after the original paper on "3D Gaussian Splatting for Real-Time Radiance Field Rendering" was released and got it working in Karma. With the recent update of MaterialX and the inclusion of the viewdirection node this setup now works with any renderer that supports MaterialX 1.38.10
