Kiln is an end-to-end system for rendering large volumetric datasets in the browser using WebGPU.
It covers the full pipeline: data preprocessing, HTTP streaming, decompression, memory virtualization, and rendering — making multi-gigabyte CT scans and scientific volumes interactive in a standard browser tab using a contemporary tech stack.
