## What it is
Official implementation of 'Triangle Splatting for Real-Time Radiance Field Rendering' (3DV 2026), which uses 3D triangles as rendering primitives for radiance field rendering. It provides training, rendering, evaluation, and video generation scripts built on custom CUDA kernels.

## Use cases
- train a radiance field model on captured scenes
- render novel views of a 3D scene in real time
- reproduce results from the Triangle Splatting paper on MipNeRF360
- generate fly-through videos from trained 3D scene models
- experiment with mesh-aware differentiable rendering primitives

## When to choose
- you need real-time radiance field rendering with mesh-compatible triangle primitives
- you want to bridge neural rendering with traditional GPU graphics pipelines
- you are researching differentiable rendering or novel view synthesis

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready end-user 3D viewer or editor
- you lack a CUDA-capable GPU or want CPU-only rendering
- you need a mature, stable library with long-term API guarantees

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: graphics, machine-learning, simulation
