Design and prototyping, 3D model development, AI-created content
I experimented with artificial intelligence to transform my cat into a 3D model. The result? A mix of technology, creativity, and a touch of digital magic!
From Photo to AI Image with Whisk by Google
It all started with Whisk, a tool by Google designed for experimenting and playing with AI-generated images. I uploaded a photo of my cat, and Whisk processed it into a stylized version, creating an image that looked like a plush toy! π§Έβ¨ The AI reinterpreted the details while maintaining a surprising resemblance to the original. It was fascinating to see how a generative model could transform a simple photo into something new and creative.
From Image to 3D Model with Meshy
Next, I took things a step further: converting the AI-generated image from Whisk into a 3D model. I used Meshy, an AI that analyzes images and generates detailed 3D meshes. ποΈπ The software processed the shapes and proportions, producing a base model that I then refined to make it more realistic. The idea of turning an AI-generated illustration into a three-dimensional object truly amazed me!
The end result? An adorable soft toy to print or display in 3D!
After some fine-tuning, my cat finally became a 3D model! Now I can animate it, use it in virtual environments, or even 3D print it to have a physical version.
