Apple previews AI model that builds 3D scenes using images: How it works

Apple has published a new research paper detailing an artificial intelligence (AI) model called Matrix3D. Developed in collaboration with researchers from Nanjing University and The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Matrix3D enables the reconstruction of detailed 3D scenes and objects using only a few 2D images. This marks a significant shift in how photogrammetry – an established technique for reconstructing 3D structures from photos – is approached.
