Microsoft Open-Sources TRELLIS.2: 3D Model Generation From Single Images in Seconds

Microsoft Research has released TRELLIS.2, an open-source 4-billion-parameter AI model that transforms ordinary photographs into production-ready 3D objects with physically-based rendering materials in as little as three seconds. The model, released under MIT license in December 2024, represents a significant advance in image-to-3D generation, enabling developers to rapidly create textured 3D assets for games, virtual environments, and design workflows.
