I vibecoded a simple web app using Sharp that allowed be to quickly browse any local image folder and view them as "almost" volumetric 3d scenes in a VR headset.
I precomputed and cached each one so it was nearly instant. The effect - although only a crude wrapper around what Sharp already does - was quite transformative and mesmerising. Just the ease of pointing it at any folder of photos and viewing them fully spatially.
It was a bit of a mess code-wise and kinda specific to my local setup - but I should really clean it up deploy it somewhere for other people to try. Although I keep assuming someone else will do it before me and make a better job of it.
I would love to try that out, if you ever make it let me know.
My email is in my profile - ping me and I'll be much more likely to remember to do it.
See above for the link to the repo
Nice, would love to see it, feel free to link it here <3
It's a fork of someone else's viewer with gallery mode added: https://github.com/IxxyXR/sharp-web-splats/tree/main
just edit app.py or set an env var for GALLERY_FOLDER, install the reqs, run app.py and use add "/gallery" to the url displayed in the console.
