TRELLIS
Scalable and Versatile 3D Generation from images
What is TRELLIS?
TRELLIS is a game-changing 3D modeling tool that turns 2D images into detailed, scalable 3D models—effortlessly. Whether you're a designer, architect, or hobbyist, if you’ve ever stared at a photo and thought, “I wish I could spin this around and see it in 3D,” TRELLIS makes that dream a reality. Just feed it an image (or multiple!), and watch it reconstruct geometry, textures, and depth with surprising accuracy. It’s like giving your photos a third dimension—no 3D modeling skills required.
Key Features
• Single or Multi-Image Input: Upload one photo or combine multiple angles for richer detail—TRELLIS handles both like a pro.
• Scalable Precision: Generate models for anything from tiny trinkets to sprawling architectural structures without losing quality.
• Texture Magic: Preserves intricate surface details (think fabric patterns, wood grain) so your models look alive.
• Intuitive Interface: No clunky tools—just sliders and previews that let you tweak lighting, depth, and resolution on the fly.
• Real-Time Previews: See your 3D model take shape instantly as you adjust settings.
• Format Flexibility: Export to popular formats (OBJ, GLB, FBX) so you can plug your creations into games, AR apps, or CAD software.
• AI-Driven Optimization: The smarts behind TRELLIS learn from each input, refining edges and guessing missing geometry so you don’t have to.
• Collaborative Layers: Share models with teammates and stack annotations or edits in a shared workspace.
How to use TRELLIS?
- Upload Your Image(s): Start with a clear photo or a set of images capturing different angles.
- Adjust Settings: Play with resolution sliders, lighting presets, and texture sharpness—preview updates live.
- Generate: Hit “Build 3D Model” and let TRELLIS work its magic (it’s fast—grab a coffee, but maybe not a whole pot).
- Refine: Use the brush tool to fix minor gaps or tweak geometry manually if perfection’s your thing.
- Preview in 3D Space: Spin, zoom, and inspect your model from every angle (or drop it into a virtual room to see how it fits).
- Export or Share: Save your masterpiece or send a link to collaborators with embedded notes.
Example: Imagine you’re designing a product prototype. Snap a few photos of a clay model, upload them, and boom—you’ve got a digital version ready for a client presentation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can TRELLIS handle low-quality or blurry images?
It’s surprisingly forgiving! While sharp images yield the best results, TRELLIS uses AI to “guess” missing details in slightly blurry photos. That said, don’t expect miracles with a pixelated snapshot.
What if my object has multiple parts or complex geometry?
TRELLIS excels at layered objects (like furniture with cushions) or intricate shapes (think sculptures). Just provide multiple angles, and it’ll stitch them together.
How much control do I have over textures?
A lot. You can manually adjust texture intensity, blend modes, or even swap materials (e.g., make a wooden chair look like metal).
Does it work with artistic styles, like cartoons or abstract art?
Absolutely! While trained on real-world photos, TRELLIS adapts to stylized inputs. You’ll get quirky, faithful recreations if your source art is wild.
How long does generation take?
Most models pop out in 1–3 minutes. Super high-res or complex scenes might take longer, but you’ll get a progress bar so you can plan your snack break accordingly.
Can I edit the 3D model after export?
Yep! Exported files are standard formats, so tweak them in Blender, Maya, or whatever’s in your toolkit.
What if the model looks “off” in certain angles?
Use the manual edit tools to nudge vertices or fill gaps. TRELLIS isn’t perfect, but it’s a great starting point for human-AI tag-team modeling.
What AI tech powers TRELLIS?
It’s built on neural radiance fields (NeRFs) and diffusion models, which basically means it’s great at understanding light, depth, and texture from 2D inputs. Fancy stuff, but you don’t need to know the jargon to use it!
