Worked on asset pipeline enhancements across the ArthurBrussee/brush and Genesis-Embodied-AI/Genesis repositories, focusing on 3D graphics and data fidelity. Delivered a feature to preserve up-axis orientation during Gaussian splat exports to PLY files, updating serialization logic and importer parsing. Addressed CI reliability by resolving dependency advisories and fixing benchmark test compilation using Rust and Cargo. Improved asset compatibility by fixing texture loading from USDZ archives, leveraging the USD asset resolver and adding targeted unit tests. The work emphasized robust dependency management, async programming, and image processing, resulting in smoother build processes and more reliable asset export and import workflows.
