Why use Antigravity A1 for Gaussian Splatting?
immersive 360 aerial scenes, spatial tours, outdoor experiences, location previews, property context, and drone footage where surrounding context matters
Drone capture is valuable for Gaussian Splatting because it records viewpoints that are difficult to capture from the ground. Buildings, roofs, sites, landscapes, courtyards, outdoor products, and large objects often need aerial context to reconstruct well.
Splatware turns 360 drone footage into more than a preview. After training, you can host the model, create virtual tours, render images and videos, animate camera paths, edit and color grade the scene, cut unwanted parts, view the point cloud, and download outputs for further processing.
How should you capture with Antigravity A1 for the best Splatware reconstruction?
Capture slowly, overlap aggressively, use multiple heights, avoid sudden yaw, and cover important surfaces from more than one angle.
- Use slow mapping-style movement before creative cinematic movement.
- Avoid fast yaw turns because they create motion blur and inconsistent frames.
- Lock exposure or keep exposure stable when possible.
- Capture the same important area from more than one altitude and angle.
- Keep the subject in frame long enough to create overlapping views.
- Follow all local drone laws, privacy rules, airspace restrictions, and permission requirements.
Antigravity A1 capture plan for Splatware
| Capture pass | How to fly | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Main orbit | Fly a slow circle around the subject at medium distance. | Creates broad side coverage for the main reconstruction. |
| High oblique pass | Repeat from above with the camera angled down. | Improves roofs, terrain, ground, and site context. |
| Low detail pass | Capture facades, entrances, signs, edges, and important structures closer where safe. | Improves the details people inspect in the final splat. |
| Cross path or grid | Fly a slow crossing path through or over the scene. | Adds viewpoint diversity and reduces weak areas. |
| Transition pass | Capture paths between important areas rather than disconnected clips. | Helps Splatware build a coherent scene and virtual tour. |
| Review pass | Record extra coverage of reflective, textureless, hidden, or important areas. | Reduces holes and weak surfaces. |
Which Splatware model and parameters should you use for Antigravity A1?
Use LiteV2 for validation, Cinematic for most production drone splats, and Ultra when maximum detail, high Gaussian count, downloads, or premium deliverables matter.
Cinematic is recommended for most Antigravity A1 hosted 360 tours. Ultra is recommended for premium immersive reconstructions, high-detail exports, and large 360 drone scenes.
Do not automatically choose the largest possible model for every output. For hosted web tours, balance visual fidelity with load speed and viewer performance. For downloads, archival work, and further processing, a higher Gaussian count and Ultra training may be more appropriate.
Recommended Splatware settings for Antigravity A1
| Splatware option | Recommended use | Why |
|---|---|---|
| LiteV2 | Quick validation and capture testing. | Unlimited Lite training is useful before spending premium trainings. |
| Cinematic | Cinematic is recommended for most Antigravity A1 hosted 360 tours. Ultra is recommended for premium immersive reconstructions, high-detail exports, and large 360 drone scenes. | Best balance for professional drone reconstructions and hosted tours. |
| Ultra | Highest-fidelity final output, detailed scenes, aerial mapping, and premium exports. | Supports the maximum fidelity direction and Gaussian count up to 10M in supported workflows. |
| Gaussian count | 1M-3M for tests, 3M-6M for strong hosted tours, higher for final detail when performance allows. | Controls fidelity, size, and viewer performance. |
| Physics mesh | Enable when you need collision, simulation, geometry, or downstream spatial workflows. | Adds dense mesh output in addition to the photorealistic splat. |
| Background audio | Use for immersive drone tours, location walkthroughs, or presentation context. | Adds atmosphere to hosted virtual tours. |
| Camera path | Keep for flythroughs, renders, animations, and repeatable tour movement. | Makes the model useful for rendered videos and guided experiences. |
What can Splatware do after training the Antigravity A1 splat?
Splatware can host the drone model, create virtual tours, render images and videos, animate camera paths, edit and color grade, cut unwanted parts, view the point cloud, generate dense mesh options, and download outputs.
Splatware outputs after drone training
| Output | Use case | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Hosted viewer | Client review, public sharing, property pages, site documentation. | Viewers can open the model in a browser. |
| Virtual Tour Lab | Drone-based tours of sites, properties, landscapes, construction areas, and locations. | Turns reconstruction into a guided experience. |
| Photo / Animation Studio | Render images, videos, flythroughs, and animations from the splat. | Creates marketing and documentation media from the trained model. |
| Editor | Color grade, cut parts, clean sections, and refine presentation. | Improves the final deliverable. |
| Point cloud | Inspection, QA, and downstream technical workflows. | Shows structure behind the reconstruction. |
| Camera path | Tours, flythroughs, capture review, and repeated movement. | Supports controlled rendering and storytelling. |
| Dense mesh | Physics, collision, simulation, geometry, and spatial logic. | Adds geometry-oriented output to photorealistic splats. |
| Downloads | Further processing, archiving, external pipelines. | Keeps your output portable. |
What mistakes should you avoid when using Antigravity A1 for Gaussian Splatting?
Avoid fast cinematic-only footage, missing coverage, too little overlap, exposure jumps, and publishing without viewer testing.
Common Antigravity A1 3DGS mistakes
| Mistake | Why it hurts | Better approach |
|---|---|---|
| Only recording cinematic flybys | They look nice but often lack reconstruction coverage. | Record slow mapping passes first. |
| One orbit only | Creates missing backs, roofs, corners, or sides. | Use multiple orbits, heights, and cross paths. |
| Flying too fast | Creates blur and inconsistent frames. | Slow down and stabilize movement. |
| Sudden exposure shifts | Creates inconsistent photometric appearance. | Lock exposure or move gradually between lighting conditions. |
| No close detail pass | Important areas look soft. | Add safe closer passes for key structures. |
| Ignoring output performance | A huge model may not be pleasant to open. | Test hosted tours on the target devices. |
What is specific to Antigravity A1?
Antigravity A1-style 360 footage is different from normal directional drone video. Because 360 resolution is spread over the full sphere, fly closer, slower, and with more repeated coverage than you would for a normal forward-facing shot.
