I am a 3D enthusiast, Animator, Aerial videographer and a filmmaker from Finland. I love editing videos, Tinkering, 3D-printing stuffs and 3D scanning.

I work also as an entrepreneur on audio visual sector. My one man company is called ToppiNappi.

Are you interested in my aerial footages?

These are April tags and my upcoming video will cover them and how they can help make #3Dscanning more accurate, correct orientation in the coordinate system, and set the model to the correct scale. So stay tuned!

I've bundled my two Blender tools into Virtual Camera Tool package!

Get My two most popular Blender add-ons into one discounted bundle:

🔹 Camera Array Tool
🔹 360 Extractor

Thank you If you decide to purchase the bundle or some of my digital products. It directly supports my channel and helps me create more videos, tutorials, and tools around 3D scanning and immersive workflows.

Very exciting! I have just released a new Blender plugin and it is available on my Gumroad store. This 360 Extractor tool helps you extract images from 360 videos so that they can then be used to create 3D environments with Posthot or RealityScan.

Now this starts to look something. I have been tinkering around my Ultimate 360 scanning device. This one has three ‪@insta360‬ X5 cameras, some ‪@SmallRigGlobal‬ and other camera gears and they are connected together with special 3D printed parts which I have designed and modelled my self. This device starts to looks like those Olympic-level archery equipments.

This is very exciting! A huge thank to #Insta360 for sponsoring me. I have a very interesting project coming up where I aim to build the ultimate 3D scanner that utilizes multiple 360 ​​cameras. Stay tuned!

I’ve made some solid improvements to the Camera Array Tool!

The new version (v3.2.0) includes smarter 4DGS rendering, safer COLMAP export (even if rendering is interrupted), and proper support for resuming incomplete animations. Plus, the images.txt export is now fixed and fully Postshot-compatible.

If you’re working with Gaussian Splatting or animated scans in Blender, this update makes the workflow much more reliable.

If you have purchased Camera Array Tool
Download the latest version via your Gumroad Library or from Superhive Market and let me know what you think!

Exciting! I was a guest on Gabriele Romagnoli's XR AI Spotlight podcast show a while ago. Now the first cover art from that session has been released. The actual podcast will be available to watch and listen to on April 30, 2025. It will be interesting to see what it turned out like and what all Gaussian Splatting stuff was discussed there. Stay tuned!

My next video topic is going to be real world 4DGS captures. I received an interesting dataset to study. Thanks in advance to Maarten Aerssens, a student from Belgium, who provided me with this very ingenious single-camera dataset. Stay tuned!

Do you remember back in the years when the Facebook was interested in VR technology and especially 360-degree capturing? In 2016 and 2017 a relic from that time is the Cube-map format, which was designed to be as a standard and which we can still be found in After Effects. In this tutorial, I will show you how to convert 360 video from this Facebook 3:2 Cube-map format into image sequences that we can now use as source images, for example, in training 3D Gaussian Splatting models.

Let's start posting here again! Yesterday I had an interesting interview with Gabriele Romagnoli on the @XRAISpotlight Podcast show. We talked about #GaussianSplatting and my Camera Array Tool. I'll post a link when the podcast episode will be ready and published.
