What people say. Recommended as an impressive pre-AI demonstration of extracting editable 3D models from a single 2D image.

Demo combines Image Processing and 3D modelling to extract and edit objects in a single photograph!

SIGGRAPH from over a decade ago has entered the chat... link to this video It may not be AI, but this single video blew my mind back in *2013* and I find myself thinking about it often.

I would love to see this combined with object extraction to make 3d models from the measurements. Here's an amazing demo: link to this video

Lots of interesting research being done on this, keep an eye out for stuff from SIGGRAPH later this month. Here's an example from SIGGRAPH Asia: link to this video .

That is correct. Sometime in the future, consumers will have software that can turn 2D images into simulated 3D 0. It's still in dev mode right now, though. 0 link to this video

>SIGGRAPH from over a decade ago has entered the chat... > > link to this video A version of this was available in Photoshop for a long time, but I think the feature was deprecated and removed completely this year. I had used it for a few things here and there, but dedicated 3D tools were much better if you were working in that space.
