A new open-source tool enables local AI agents to generate 3D Gaussian splat models (.ply) from a single image using the Idol model from Sperid Labs. The system requires at least 10 GB of VRAM, with peak usage around 8 GB, and has been tested on RTX 3080 and 5090 GPUs. Current output is limited to Gaussian splats, though mesh export for game engines and 3D printing is planned.
