I built a web viewer for visualizing Gaussian Splat .ply files generated by Apple's ml-sharp, which converts a single photo into a 3D Gaussian Splat in under a second [1].

Features: - Upload and view .ply file directly in the browser - Multiple camera trajectory animations (rotate, swipe, shake, forward) - Interactive orbit controls (drag to orbit, scroll to zoom, right-drag to pan) - No installation required – runs entirely client-side

The original ml-sharp can render the same video trajectories but requires a CUDA GPU. This viewer lets you explore the 3D output on any device with a browser.

I also added cloud GPU inference via Modal so you can generate splats without a local GPU (free tier available) [2].
