Episode 6: Point Clouds That Answer Questions
3D AI Live/Replay/Episode 06
Ask a 3D scan a question in plain words, and get a measured answer.
This is the full recording of the 3D AI Live session of 6 October 2026. We start from a raw 3D scan and turn it into a scene you can question, in plain words, with measured answers coming back.
The brief
What we build in this session
You start with
A raw 3D point cloud.
You end with
A scene that knows its objects and answers your questions.
How we get there
One live build, a little over 40 minutes, with captions and the questions from the room at the end.

Three ways to take this further
The session shows the idea working. These take you from the idea to your own build.
The research
LLM-Supervised Point Cloud Processing
My latest paper, written with Alex Key: from a raw point cloud to a scene a language model can reason about.
