Nvidia has released a new AI model that could change game development by making 3D modelling easier and faster. The AI model is called Neuralangelo, and it transforms 2D video clips into highly accurate 3D structures. Creative professionals can then import these objects into design applications, editing them further for use in art, video game development, robotics, and even industrial digital twins. Applying videos as a reference point is not new, but the AI model Neuralangelo can vividly recreate the textures of different materials, including glass, marble, and roof shingling, to provide high-fidelity 3D reconstructions of building interiors and exteriors. The technology provides a huge advantage to creators and could help to recreate the real world in the digital world.
Nvidia is a computer technology company that develops and sells graphics processing units (GPUs) and related software.
Ming-Yu Liu is the senior director of research and co-author of the paper about the Neuralangelo model.
