3D Fire Reconstruction Achieved with Gaussian Splatting and Optical Flow

Researchers have developed a novel method for reconstructing dynamic fire in 3D using a spatiotemporal representation based on Gaussian functions. This technique aims to capture the complex, high-frequency features of fire from a limited number of camera views by separating the static background from the volatile fire region. The system utilizes dense multi-view stereo images, monocular depth priors, and a 3D flow field derived from optical flow to initialize the fire, with individual 3D Gaussians encoding lifetime and velocity for accurate temporal alignment.

    Gaussians on Fire: High-Frequency Reconstruction of Flames

    arXiv:2511.22459v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We propose a method to reconstruct dynamic fire in 3D from a limited set of camera views with a Gaussian-based spatiotemporal representation. Capturing and reconstructing fire and its dynamics is highly challenging due to its vo…
