Interesting how they voxelate the splat to print it. I am sure there are more efficient algorithms that allow you to make a mesh which then gets sliced before printing

But, if you made a mesh you wouldn’t be able to represent fuzzy objects. That’s one of the major advantages of both splats and this printing technique.

I am wondering if it would be possible to print a splat similarly as it is shown on the screen, so not voxelized, but like a hologram with overlapping transparent gaussians. It looks like the model from the outside at the given angle, but the inside is nothing like model itself.

Resin printers like this use UV pixels to cure the material instead of extrusion nozzles to trace the perimeter. Voxels are the natural format for resin.
