Projects are the core organizational units in Volinga Suite (VS), providing a structured environment for managing all elements of a 3D Gaussian Splatting workflow. Each project is self-contained, ensuring efficient asset management and smooth collaboration within the production pipeline.
A Volinga Suite project consists of three essential components:
-
Scenes (.vscene files): Define spatial arrangements of 3DGS assets, including transformations such as translation, rotation, and scale. Scenes also manage hierarchical relationships between elements.
-
Assets (.nvol files): Represent individual 3D Gaussian Splatting elements. These can be placed, manipulated, and rendered within scenes.
-
Datasets (folders): Store source data required for generating assets. Each dataset folder is named after the corresponding asset, ensuring clear traceability between raw data and processed elements.

Volinga Suite employs a hierarchical project structure, with a primary project file (.volproj) at the root level. This organization streamlines workflows by defining clear relationships between datasets, assets, and rendered scenes. Both .volproj and .vscene files are JSON-based, facilitating seamless integration into custom pipelines.
