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. But in a new preprint paper, a ...

Turning a 2D shape into a 3D object is now possible with an application like Paint 3D. In this article, we explain how to turn 2D objects into 3D objects using Paint 3D. Follow all the steps in ...

They have 2D pictures, and they have physical objects. Occasionally there is a CAD. Creating 3D objects of the products is a hurdle companies must overcome, but their options are not great.

The Google team behind Objectron, then, developed a toolset that allowed annotators to label 3D bounding boxes (i.e., rectangular borders) for objects using a split-screen view to display 2D video ...

So first his system renders a 3D reconstruction of the 2D image in very low resolution. You can still get a lot from that — for example, that the outer third of the whole volume appears to be empty.

With just a little program, and the power of cloud computing, Photofly can transform faces, objects, rooms, and architecture into highly-detailed 3D meshes.

For example, if the solution were only applied to the edges, only they would shrink when heated, and the disc would form a bowl-shaped object. But more complex “chemical origami” would need an ...

The proof of the fundamental difference between 2D and 3D liquids was obtained by researchers at NTU Singapore, the Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research in India, the ...

New sensors being researched for a future Apple Pencil could allow users to use the device to trace both 2D and 3D objects, and send the data back to a connected iPad or Mac.
