The Ultimate Camera for 3DGS?

A look at cost, quality and speed

Mindy Li is International Business Development Director and Product Manager at XGRIDS , the company behind PortalCam, a SLAM-based spatial camera designed for high-fidelity 3D Gaussian Splatting capture. In this conversation, she explains how PortalCam’s approach differs from traditional photogrammetry, why the data it produces is accurate enough for engineering work, and how a single scan ends up serving real estate agents, VFX crews, and robotics researchers in completely different ways.

Before getting into the interview, I wanted to quickly introduce you to today’s sponsor Gracia AI. Gracia AI is the only app that allows you to experience Gaussian Splatting volumetric videos on a standalone headset, either in VR or MR.

It is a truly impressive experience and I recommend you to try it out right now on your Quest or PC-powered headset.
