By using AI and computational geometry Threedy.ai can generate high-quality 3D models from 2D photos at a third of the cost and a fraction of the time current solutions require.

NVIDIA recently showcased a technology called Instant NeRF, which uses AI to turn flat, 2D images into fully 3D environments in mere minutes.

AI researchers at Nvidia have developed a way to covert a handful of 2D images into a 3D scene almost instantly by using ultra-fast neural network training alongside rapid rendering.

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 ...

UPDATE: AutoDesk tells me you only need 40 photos if you want an ultra-precise 3D model, and that you can still create something from only a couple of images, if need be.

A new holographic camera technology can transform standard 2D cameras in smartphones, laptops, and cars into immersive, high-performance 3D cameras .

Stanford University service Make3D automatically converts a single picture into a 3D model. We covered similar technology from Fotowoosh in April 2007.
