ArXi:2603.16447v1 Announce Type: new In practical real-time XR and telepresence applications, network and computing resources fluctuate frequently. Therefore, a progressive 3D representation is needed. To this end, we propose ProgressiveAvatars, a progressive avatar representation built on a hierarchy of 3D Gaussians grown by adaptive implicit subdivision on a template mesh. 3D Gaussians are defined in face-local coordinates to remain animatable under varying expressions and head motion across multiple detail levels.
