SAM 3D is a cutting-edge AI-powered technology developed by Meta that transforms ordinary 2D images into detailed, realistic 3D models swiftly and efficiently. It comes in two specialized models: SAM 3D Objects, designed for reconstructing everyday objects, furniture, and entire indoor scenes with full 3D geometry and textures, and SAM 3D Body, which focuses on human body shape, pose estimation, and full-body mesh recovery from a single image.​
What is SAM 3D?
SAM 3D can generate production-ready 3D assets from just a single photograph without the need for multiple angle shots or complex scanning equipment. It is compatible with standard image formats like JPEG or PNG and supports exporting models in various formats such as OBJ, GLB, and PLY, fully textured and mapped for use across popular 3D software platforms like Blender, Unity, Unreal Engine, and more.
Why SAM 3D?
SAM 3D democratizes 3D modeling by removing traditional barriers like expensive hardware, extensive training, and time-consuming manual modeling. It offers near real-time processing suitable for fast prototyping, large-scale workflows, and instant results which are critical for industries such as e-commerce, gaming, augmented/virtual reality, telemedicine, and digital fashion. Its AI model can handle challenging imaging conditions like occlusions, cluttered backgrounds, and unusual poses while maintaining high accuracy and realism.
