Krill™

Native Rhino workflow

Splats are Rhino block instances. They follow the tools you already use — layers, hide and isolate, undo — and you can use them with Grasshopper.

Bring your own .ply file.

Splat and model in one scene

Splats and Rhino geometry share one scene. Rhino solids occlude splats; transparent objects tint them. The cursor snaps to splat centres, so you measure directly on the scan. It draws in every viewport, in screen captures and prints too.

Cut, crop & clip

Trim scans with cut and crop volumes, or with Rhino's native clipping planes. Trimming is pixel-perfect — every splat is clipped exactly as expected.

Splat editing

Clean scans inside Rhino — stray splats, passers-by, capture noise. Two display modes while editing: rings outline every splat, centres mark each one as a point. Deletions are non-destructive, undoable, survive save and reopen, and can be restored at any time.

Appearance & colour

Hue, saturation, brightness and more — per placement, per block, or globally, with live preview.

Experimental: relightable splats Experimental

Sunlight on scans. Splats shadow themselves and exchange shadows with Rhino geometry. Off by default, may change between releases. KrillExperimental unlocks it; KrillToggleRelight turns it on.

Built for Rhino.

Krill draws splats with its own renderer, native code written for the Rhino viewport. No external renderer, no platform, no subscription.

Runs locally.

No uploads. No tracking.
Your models and splats stay on your machine.
