gsbox

A cross-platform command-line tool for 3D Gaussian Splatting, focusing on format conversion and optimization.

Features

• Conversion between file formats, supporting .ply, .splat, .spx, and .spz(v2,v3) formats for 3DGS.
• Viewing file header information for .ply, .spx, .spz, and .ksplat files, or simple information of .splat.
• Supports data transformation (Rotation, Scale, Translation).
• Supports merging multiple model files into one.

.spx

• The .spx format is flexible, expandable, and supports proprietary data protection. It incorporates encoding methods from both .splat and .spz formats and adds block compression processing. It supports progressive loading and is suitable for large file models.
• For detailed information about the .spx format, please refer to SPX Specification
• To render and view models in the .spx format, you can use Reall3dViewer. This viewer is built on Three.js and supports features such as marking, measurements, and text watermarks.
