Online & Offline Demo Debugging about splatam HOT 8 CLOSED

I solved this problem and finally found out that the problem is caused by:

When I run bash bash_scripts/nerfcapture.bash configs/iphone/nerfcapture.pyfor the first time,the terminal had shown "waiting for frames...",howerver,the connection between my pc and iphone have some problems(maybe the nerfcapture app),so I used Ctrl+Cto simply kill the progress.

After that,an incomplete folder experiments/iPhone_Captures/offline_demo/keeps remaining on my pc，so when bash bash_scripts/nerfcapture.bash configs/iphone/nerfcapture.py is executed next time,the problem come out.

The simplest way to solve it is removing the experiments folder and run the offline mode again.hahah.

By the way,I noticed that the nerfcapture app connection is so fragile:

1. I have to restart it from time to time to keep connection available when running online mode
2. it is unworkable with my iphone's hotspot.

hope these will be fixed in the future～

Hello, I got a question. I found online or offline bash are "sudo" like. So these demos can't be run on the windows?

Hello，the connection between my pc and iphone have some problems too, the terminal keeps showing "waiting for frames..."without any further progress. I wonder how did you ultimately connect the app to your pc?

I have also been troubled by the same problem as you for a while.

• When I use my iphone's hotspot:
  no matter what I do,the progress keeps 'Waiting for frames'.issue
• When I use WIFI:
  1. online mode: if it shows 0 connection(s) at the upper right corner,I simply keep the progress run on my pc and kill the the nerfcapture app on my phone ,then restart it.The rate of reconnection successfully rate is nearly 90%.
  2. offline mode: I follow the steps mentioned when I create this issue,after waiting for several seconds,it starts to transfer data.However,the transfer speed is much lower than online mode.

Hi @zhaosiyuan1098, Thanks for trying out the code and providing support in this thread!

Regarding your folder problem, you can set the overwrite config to True and the terminal will ask if you want to overwrite the existing folder:

Instead, if you don't want to overwrite the previous demo, you can change the name for the new scan in the config:
