# OpenFlyScan
[Paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2609.24253) · [Project page](https://openflyscan.github.io/) · [Citation](#citation)
Resources for aerial Gaussian-splat reconstruction and drone simulation.
This dataset repository hosts downloadable runtime packages and their associated
scene resources. Training/evaluation code and the trained Quality Predictor
head are in the [main GitHub repository](https://github.com/mistletoe235/OpenFlyScan).
## Available now
| Resource | Contents | Entry point |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **HIL-simulator v0.1.0 — Expo East** | Linux runtime, preconverted Expo East scene, English HIL monitor and PLY converter | [Download and run](HIL-simulator/README.md) |
The Expo East package opens directly with the **HIL monitor visible**. Without
a connected phone, it remains in the waiting state; an optional software-only
preview is also available. No UE editor or scene conversion is required to
open the included scene.

This dataset currently contains the simulator package and converted Expo East
scene resources. Standalone GS PLYs and training teacher/cache bundles are not
yet available here. The trained head is already included in the main repository
at `weights/quality_predictor.pt`, together with a small real-feature inference
example; it is not a separate HF download.
## Code and companion apps
- [OpenFlyScan](https://github.com/mistletoe235/OpenFlyScan): trained head, CPU
example, training/evaluation and the mobile-facing workstation service.
- [OpenFlyScan-UE](https://github.com/mistletoe235/OpenFlyScan-UE): UE source,
scene conversion and HIL integration.
- [App downloads](https://github.com/mistletoe235/OpenFlyScan/releases/tag/preview-20260922):
signed Android V4/V5 APKs and iOS access information.
- [TestFlight requests](https://github.com/mistletoe235/OpenFlyScan/discussions/1):
iOS invitations when an eligible external-testing build is available.
The source repositories and simulator downloads are publicly available.
## Licensing
The Expo East scene resources use **CC BY 4.0**. Original project code uses
Apache-2.0; NanoGaussianSplatting and other dependencies retain their own terms,
and Unreal Engine remains under Epic's EULA. See [license scope](LICENSES/README.md).
The existing v0.1.0 runtime archive and checksum are unchanged. Updated notices,
the scene license and [Eigen source](HIL-simulator/linux/v0.1.0/THIRD_PARTY_SOURCES/README.md)
are provided alongside it; no replacement runtime download is needed.
