TranSplat: Instant Object Relighting in Gaussian Splatting via Spherical Harmonic Radiance Transfer

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2503.22676v5 Announce Type: replace We present TranSplat, a method for instant, accurate object relighting within the Gaussian Splatting (GS) framework. Rather than relying on costly inverse rendering routines, we propose a BRDF-free radiance transfer strategy that analytically modulates the spherical harmonic (SH) appearance coefficients of an object's 2D Gaussian surfels using per-normal irradiance ratios derived from source and target environment maps. To handle view-dependent and glossy appearances without explicit material estimation, we.
