# Squishy 3DGS Assets (Test)

> **Note:** These are test assets for development and evaluation of the squishy physics simulation pipeline.

Pre-trained 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) scenes used by the **squishy** physics simulation project. Each `.zip` contains a full `gaussian-splatting`-format output directory (PLY point cloud at multiple iterations, cameras, images).

## Asset Origins

**All 3DGS scene assets in this repository are open-source assets from [PhysGaussian](https://github.com/XPandora/PhysGaussian)** (Xie et al., CVPR 2024), mirrored here to the Hugging Face Hub for convenient access. We did not train these — full credit goes to the PhysGaussian authors.

## Usage with squishy

```python
from squishy.asset_registry import get_ply

ply_path = get_ply("bread")   # extracts zip on first use
```

Assets are fetched automatically from this dataset repo via `squishy.hub` if not present locally. Set `SQUISHY_HF_DATASET_REPO=deformsuite/squishy-assets` in your `.env`.
