GSCam is an app that lets you overlay a 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) model onto the iPhone’s live camera feed and shoot/record while confirming realistic spatial compositing **on the spot**. It’s ideal for location scouting, VFX/compositing verification, AR staging tests, and previewing creative work. ## What is “3DGS (3D Gaussian Splatting)”? 3DGS is a new form of 3D representation created from photos or video. Unlike traditional polygon (mesh) models, it represents space as a collection of countless **Gaussian points** (tiny particles). This makes it easier to achieve a lifelike texture and atmosphere—closer to real footage. With GSCam, you can display 3DGS in AR on top of the iPhone camera view, adjust its placement, and record while previewing. ## Key Features * Load 3DGS (PLY) files and display them in AR over the camera view * Intuitively adjust **position / rotation / scale** * Record video while previewing the AR composite * Save recorded videos to the **Photos** app * Uses only the necessary permissions (Camera / optional Microphone / Photos saving) ## Recommended For * Video, VFX, CG, and XR creators working with 3DGS-based production * Anyone who wants to quickly check on-site: “Does this composite actually work?” * Creators who want to incorporate 3DGS into their work, but first want to preview it live on camera
