ByteDance has announced its new artificial intelligence model called Seed3D. This technology, which can transform a single photo into high-quality and physics simulation-ready 3D models in seconds, is set to fundamentally change the world of gaming and augmented reality. So, how exactly does Seed3D work and what distinguishes it from its competitors?
While the AI world has focused on generating video from text or advanced chatbots, the competition has now moved into the third dimension. ByteDance, the technology giant and parent company of TikTok, has quietly introduced a new model that is set to revolutionize digital content creation. This technology takes a simple 2D photo and converts it into a living, tangible 3D model.
“Seed3D,” developed by ByteDance’s research unit SEED, works like a science fiction filter. Until now, 3D modeling required hours of technical knowledge and laborious craftsmanship. Seed3D is poised to rewrite the rules in every sector, from e-commerce to game development, by reducing this process to “seconds.”
Seed3D’s sole trick is not just to produce a model!
The most critical feature that distinguishes Seed3D from other models on the market is that it doesn’t just produce a “visual” model. The developed model creates “simulation-ready 3D assets.” This means that not only the external appearance of the created model is calculated, but also how it will behave in a physics engine, such as a game engine. The model uses a visual language model to estimate the real-world dimensions of the object it creates.
Thanks to this technology, the 3D asset produced from a single photo can be directly transferred to physics simulation environments such as Isaac Sim. ByteDance states that these models can even be used in robotics tests, such as a robotic arm grasping an object. Moreover, in the tests conducted, Seed3D yielded much better results than existing methods in both geometry and texture generation. This suggests that the new model will attract attention.
