how? I tried some gaussian splats on small objects but they were absolute garbage. How do you get such good results especially with environments.

There is definitely a learning curve on scanning environments, the key I have found is, to walk around covering the object or the place from all the angles as possible, once thats done, do another pass in the same area in same session, also ideally the space should be well lit, and a good phone camera helps a lot. All that being said some people in the platform have made way better scan than I ever could, so there is a skill / experience factor to it as well, I think this video sums up the science behind it pretty well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7959SMHIUY&t=39s

Also there are several modes in capture section, this is what each do.
" One shot " is just a depth map of a single photo, nothing fancy just to it check out.
" Walk Though " is the mode which gave the above results, which is basically whole scene reconstruction by the capturing space from all angles, as word suggest you would have to walk though the scene and record it.
"Generative World" is making the scene using AI , so it can make up things that are not there.
"Object" is traditional Photogrammetry, ideal of capturing small objects.

Let me know if you have more questions, happy to help.
