3D Gaussian Splatting App for Mac

·2026.06.02 21:39

Key point

A native app has launched that converts photos into 3D Gaussian Splats using the Mac GPU with no separate setup required.

Details

RadianceKit is the first native application to implement 3D Gaussian Splatting on macOS. It processes everything locally using Apple Silicon's GPU (Metal), with no Python, CUDA, or cloud servers required.

Key features include:

  • Native SfM support: The entire pipeline, including camera alignment (Structure-from-Motion), runs independently on the Mac with no external dependencies.
  • Simple workflow: Offers a 'Simple Mode' for one-click results and an 'Expert Mode' for detailed control.
  • Scene optimization: Supports Scene-Class Presets tailored to shooting environments such as indoor/outdoor.
  • Various outputs and preview: Export is available in 6 formats, and a real-time 3D preview during training lets you watch the scene being generated.

It currently supports M1 and above Apple Silicon models, and is available after a 3-day free trial for a one-time payment of $7.99.
