Learn more The AI research labs at Facebook, Nvidia, and startups like Threedy.ai have at various points tried their hand at the challenge of 2D-object-to-3D-shape conversion.

And it does so in less than 100 milliseconds. The Deets NVIDIA has built an artificial intelligence that can create a detailed 3D model of an object — all from just a single image of it.

In traditional 3D modeling, the process often begins with a concept sketch or a 2D image. Designers then have to manually interpret these flat visuals and reconstruct them in a 3D environment.

[Carson Katri] has a fantastic solution to easily add textures to 3D scenes in Blender: have an image-generating AI create the texture on demand, and do it for you. As shown here, two featureless b… ...

Mice can recognise 3D objects from memory of their 2D photos, study suggests ‘Picture-to-object equivalence’ has long been thought to be a cognitive function beyond rodents’ abilities ...
