In a blog post and papers, Facebook highlights a pair of AI models that can convert 2D objects into 3D shapes with high accuracy.

3D shapes are described by their faces, edges and vertices. The faces can be the same shape or different, and a 3D shape could have a curved surface as well as flat faces.

This clever new algorithm can make 3D objects from 2D photosResearchers have written an algorithm to derive 3D graphics from 2D data, quickly and at scale Microsoft researchers claim to have devised ...

Google's Objectron model can track 3D objects from 2D imagery, and it's lightweight enough to run on any modern smartphone.

This KS2 maths article explains how to sort 2D and 3D shapes according to their properties using Carroll diagrams and Venn diagrams, ...

They say online media is going to be 3D, starting with e-tailing. Where can a merchant get that multi-dimensional content? They have 2D pictures, and they have physical objects. Occasionally there ...

With just a little program, and the power of cloud computing, Photofly can transform faces, objects, rooms, and architecture into highly-detailed 3D meshes.

MIT and the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) teamed up to create a new kind of structure that can "remember" its original shape, and ...

Scientists have created new types of 2D nanostructured surfaces which appear as realistic 3D objects – including shading and shadows – using nano-engineering techniques. When light hits an object, the ...
