You might want to throw that one away :)
p0w3n3d•20m ago
Yup. It's rotten on the other side. Or maybe lead poisoned
gobdovan•11m ago
Sorry if I fell for Poe's law, but just for clarity, the strawberry's rotten underside is most likely missing splats in the rendering.
dudefeliciano•12m ago
not sure if that's a joke but i think that's just the effect of the strawberry being placed on a glass/plastic surface to be filmed from underneath
josh-wrale•17m ago
Someone: Please combine microscopy with gaussian splatting.
galsapir•14m ago
From the link: "Shot from 90 perspectives, 88 focus stacked images each. Nikon Z8, full frame, f/7.1, exposure 1/160, ISO 100, Laowa 180mm macro lens, with LED light and bluescreen." Insane!
danybittel•9m ago
And it only takes 20 Minutes to shoot all 7920 photos, the Z8 is crazy fast.

What happened to the bottom of that poor strawberry?
danybittel•10m ago
It was mounted at the bottom.. and I can't quite reach it with my camera. Might have to try some two pass way.
gobdovan•7m ago
Mount it on a needle/skewer, it should let you capture it in one pass.
gobdovan•8m ago
Gaussian splat casualty. The bottom looks like partially missing from the reconstruction.
timonoko•12m ago
What? Kiri engine makes splats. I always wondered what 3DGS might mean.

Yes. I knoweth what "splats" are: They are splats of fuzzy blobs on the display surface.

Lovely! How was the mechanical setup to ensure that all those shots are consistent, and how long did it take?
