I can’t think of any reason why it would be impossible to implement skeletal animation of gaussian splats. You still have to create the splats from images though. Just have your subject put their right arm in, then take your images and generate the second splat. Now you can interpolate between them to move the right arm. At least in that one axis. Repeat for other joints. Have them put their whole self in and turn them selves about, etc. How hard could it be? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIqCSpuDwBE
