Although these days it would seem that everyone and their pets are running 3D printers to churn out all the models and gadgets that their hearts desire, a more traditional approach to creating ...

Turn photos into 3D with Meta's SAM 3D, using SAM 2 masks and Gaussian splatting, so you can build assets quickly for ...

Papercraft projects tend to be based on 3D models from video games or custom-made art projects. The basic idea is to take a 3D model and flatten it out in software such as Dunreeb Cutout or Pepakura ...

Apple has open-sourced SHARP, a new AI model that can reconstruct photorealistic 3D scenes from a single image, with ...

The next breakthrough to take the AI world by storm might be 3D model generators. This week, OpenAI open sourced Point-E, a machine learning system that creates a 3D object given a text prompt.

The model, called SHARP, can reconstruct a photorealistic 3D scene from a single image in under a second. Here are some examples.

On Friday, researchers from Nvidia announced Magic3D, an AI model that can generate 3D models from text descriptions. After entering a prompt such as, “A blue poison-dart frog sitting on a water lily, ...
