Question

Splat load animate depth

I've setup a project to test displaying Gaussian Splats in Meta Spatial SDK. It is working great, but I was wondering if there was a way to animate the clipping plane of the splat to have a reveal effect as it is loaded rather than just suddenly appear?

As far as I know, there’s no exposed way (yet) to animate a clipping plane or depth cutoff specifically for this use case.

What I have seen some devs do instead:

  • Animate the transform (scale 0→1, small ease-in) once the splat finishes loading

  • Or if you want a “wipe” feel, fake it with an animated occluder plane that moves through the splat volume (works, but a bit hacky and depends on depth behavior).
