A new computational approach, built on data-driven techniques, is making it possible to turn simple 2D sketch into a realistic 3D shape, with little or no user input necessary. A new computational ...

A neural field network can create a continuous 3D model from a limited number of 2D images, and it does it without being trained on other samples. Researchers from the McKelvey School of Engineering ...

Are you fond of drawing some random doodles? Have you ever imagined some magic tricks that would transform your boring 2D picture into a realistic 3D model? Well then, turning a 2D shape into a 3D ...

What if you could take a simple 2D image—a sketch, a logo, or even a photograph—and transform it into a fully realized 3D model, ready for 3D printing or digital design? For years, this process ...

Use AutoCAD's "Extrude" and "Revolve" commands to turn 2-D designs into 3-D models. "Extrude" is how 3-D modelers to refer to the technique of stretching a 2-D shape into 3-D space. AutoCAD performs ...

Copilot 3D will turn your 2D images into 3D models. The tool is freely available to anyone, though you do need a Microsoft account. Microsoft suggests using an image with a single subject, even ...
