A structured 3D latent stores learned feature vectors at organized spatial locations, preserving more explicit geometry than one global vector.

Why not generate every polygon directly

A latent space lets the model learn distributions over compressed 3D structure. A decoder then reconstructs a usable representation such as a mesh or material field.

Do not collapse model generations

SLAT explains the first TRELLIS system. O-Voxel and SC-VAE describe TRELLIS.2. Keeping the terms separate prevents older architecture explanations from being presented as current TRELLIS.2 facts.
