Real image-to-3D? Meshy/Tripo beat the 27KB GLSL implicit surface by far
keenanisalive · x · 2026-10-10
In Keenan Crane's implicit-surface dragon thread, he cautions the whole thing is just an experiment: for actual image-to-3D, diffusion-based mesh generators like Meshy and Tripo are vastly faster, cheaper, better and fully automatic — these meshes took 3 minutes at about 50¢ each. See the thread's first post for full context.
