Scaniverse: Gaussian Splat UX

2024·UX Designer, Interaction Designer, Creative Technologist

Project overview

Scaniverse lets people capture and share real-world places as 3D Gaussian splats. The Scaniverse Map provides a way to discover and preview those captures, while integration with Niantic Studio connects them to web-based AR experiences. Clear entry points, scene orientation, and transitions between map, 3D, and AR views are central to making these spaces easy to explore.

Key work

Designed map navigation and preview flows for browsing 3D splats in the Scaniverse Web Map
Defined interactions for transitioning from map view to full 3D/AR exploration
Created sample projects demonstrating practical applications
Developed documentation and implementation guides
Built marketing demos highlighting splat capabilities
