<li><strong>Cost: 5</strong></li> <li><strong>Feature Set: 4.5</strong></li> <li><strong>Ease of Use: 5</strong></li> <li><strong>Quality of Output: 2.5</strong></li> <li><strong>Support: 3</strong></li> </ul> <p>Masterpiece X is an <a href="https://www.eweek.com/artificial-intelligence/what-is-artificial-intelligence/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">artificial intelligence</a> text-to-3D generator that lets you create assets with mesh, textures, and animations. This straightforward and user-friendly tool is designed to make 3D asset creation accessible to everyone, regardless of their level of expertise. You can simply describe the object or scene you have in mind using <a href="https://www.eweek.com/big-data-and-analytics/natural-language-processing/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">natural language</a> and the AI will generate a 3D model based on your description. You can specify details such as the shape, size, colors, textures, and even the desired animations.</p> <p>Masterpiece assets are compatible with industry-standard game engines and popular apps like Unity, Unreal Engine and Blender. Using this tool is easy—select a model type (object, animal or human); add shape details, as well as color details; choose your animation details; and click on generate 3D models.</p> <p>When I tested this 3D modeling tool, I was pleased with how quickly the generations were rendered. However, I should’ve been more exact. I asked it to produce a cat surfing, and instead received a cat painted in surf boards. So be precise with your words when prompting the AI generator, and remember it’s for generating single models and not scenes or multiple connected objects.</p> <div style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; padding: 20px;"> <div class="wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-large-font-size td_btn_large"><a class="wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button" style="border-radius: 38px; background-color: #478ac6;" href="https://link.technologyadvice.com/r/masterpiece-x-main" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow sponsored">Visit Masterpiece X</a></div> </div> <figure id="attachment_226072" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-226072" style="width: 1000px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-226072 size-full" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%201000%20548'%3E%3C/svg%3E" alt="The Masterpiece X dashboard." width="1000" height="548" data-lazy-srcset="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x.jpg 1000w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x-300x164.jpg 300w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x-768x421.jpg 768w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x-766x420.jpg 766w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x-696x381.jpg 696w" data-lazy-sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" data-lazy-src="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x.jpg" /><noscript><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-226072 size-full" src="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x.jpg" alt="The Masterpiece X dashboard." width="1000" height="548" srcset="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x.jpg 1000w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x-300x164.jpg 300w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x-768x421.jpg 768w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x-766x420.jpg 766w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-masterpiece_x-696x381.jpg 696w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></noscript><figcaption id="caption-attachment-226072" class="wp-caption-text">The Masterpiece X dashboard</figcaption></figure> <h3><strong>Pros and Cons</strong></h3> <table style="width: 100%;"> <tbody> <tr> <th style="width: 50%; text-align: center;">Pros</th> <th style="width: 50%; text-align: center;">Cons</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Ability to animate human models</td> <td>Building and landscape may generate poorly</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Library of more than 100 models</td> <td>Facts and process-based output could be improved</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h3><strong>Pricing</strong></h3> <p>When you sign up, Masterpiece gives you 250 credits for free.

Simply use your computer’s webcam to capture your 3D motions and use them to animate your characters in minutes, or upload a video and accomplish much the same result—a lifelike 3D animation who kicks, jumps, and moves like the person in the upload, for example.</p> <p>I tested this tool out and found it did a good job capturing my arm movements—see the image below—but struggled a bit to replicate my swift Jackie-Chan-like kicks, something I’m sure a 3D motion capture expert could easily fix in the editor studio. Overall, I was surprised at how quickly I was able to create a moving 3D animation and how effectively it approximated my movement. From recording to finish, it took about three minutes.</p> <p>Rokoko, the company that created the tool, is a technology brand that offers other motion capture technology. It has developed a range of products and software solutions for motion capture, including the SmartSuit Pro II, a full-body motion capture suit that captures your body’s motion and streams the data over WiFi in real-time to your digital characters.</p> <div style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; padding: 20px;"> <div class="wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-large-font-size td_btn_large"><a class="wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button" style="border-radius: 38px; background-color: #478ac6;" href="https://link.technologyadvice.com/r/rokoko-vision" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow sponsored">Visit Rokoko Vision</a></div> </div> <figure id="attachment_226071" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-226071" style="width: 1000px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-226071 size-full" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%201000%20698'%3E%3C/svg%3E" alt="Rokoko 3D animation design environment." width="1000" height="698" data-lazy-srcset="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision.jpg 1000w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-300x209.jpg 300w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-768x536.jpg 768w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-602x420.jpg 602w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-696x486.jpg 696w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-100x70.jpg 100w" data-lazy-sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" data-lazy-src="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision.jpg" /><noscript><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-226071 size-full" src="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision.jpg" alt="Rokoko 3D animation design environment." width="1000" height="698" srcset="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision.jpg 1000w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-300x209.jpg 300w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-768x536.jpg 768w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-602x420.jpg 602w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-696x486.jpg 696w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-rokoko_vision-100x70.jpg 100w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></noscript><figcaption id="caption-attachment-226071" class="wp-caption-text">Rokoko 3D animation design environment</figcaption></figure> <h3><strong>Pros and Cons</strong></h3> <table style="width: 100%;"> <tbody> <tr> <th style="width: 50%; text-align: center;">Pros</th> <th style="width: 50%; text-align: center;">Cons</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Livestream to Unreal, Blender and Maya</td> <td>Free plan has limited support</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Real-time retargeting</td> <td>Starter plan lacks live stream capability</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h3><strong>Pricing</strong></h3> <p>Rokoko Vision is available in free (Single-cam) and paid (Dual-cam) versions.

You can easily create 3D objects, and Spline provides features to edit the materials of these objects, add interactivity like animations, and export them in various formats.</p> <p>Big on collaboration, Spline empowers you to work with your team on 3D modeling projects in real time and set individual permissions. There’s no need to share files back and forth with other designers—like two editors working on a Google Doc, you can both work in the same file, watching your teammates’ adjustments in real-time. You can also see who’s currently in the file.</p> <p>In testing the tool, I found that the editor feature was easy to use and versatile. I could adjust lighting, effects, fog, directional light, mesh, and other settings. I was, unfortunately, limited to only several 3D prompts, including a mushroom, octopus, and gnome-like being. Users must pay to access better prompts and create their own.</p> <div style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; padding: 20px;"> <div class="wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-large-font-size td_btn_large"><a class="wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button" style="border-radius: 38px;

To use this tool, select from the available category or enter a prompt in the text box.</p> <p>Currently, Sloyd doesn’t support creating 3D models of people, animals, cars, or scenes. Instead, Sloyd is focused on creating objects rather than complex scenes or living creatures, which means it’s favored by game developers, architects, and artists.</p> <p>I found the most unique feature to be an in-platform AI text prompter that allowed me to edit whatever object I was building using a text prompt. For example, when I was designing an aquarium, I asked it to “make the roof higher,” and the request was reflected perfectly and quickly in the design.</p> <p>This in-app AI assistant is a time-saver for designers who sometimes want to avoid the settings toolbar and just type in what they want changed. I also liked how many pre-made 3D assets and objects you can choose as your foundation. This streamlines the process and makes it easier for beginners.</p> <div style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; padding: 20px;"> <div class="wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-large-font-size td_btn_large"><a class="wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button" style="border-radius: 38px;

It has eight categories, including lamps, sofas, tables, ottomans, cutlery, swords, shields, and axes. To create a 3D model, select a category and enter your prompt in the text box; 3DFY AI will generate a 3D model based on your input.</p> <p>The categories limit its usefulness to those who need these objects for projects. For example, an RPG game designer who needs to equip characters with swords and shields is a good primary end-user, while a developer building an outer space video game is not.</p> <p>In playing with the tool, I liked how it provided me with example prompts. These helped me identify keywords and prompting strategies I could use to make the 3D object match my vision. I went with “A gentleman’s Chesterfield sofa with two seats and a wraparound back. The sofa has wooden feet.” You can see the result below—I think it did a solid job.</p> <div style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; padding: 20px;"> <div class="wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-large-font-size td_btn_large"><a class="wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button" style="border-radius: 38px;

Simply type in a prompt about what you want to create, watch the creation, then enhance it through an iterative process.</p> <p>Its specialty is five-second long, smooth-motion action shots—like a polar bear scratching its back on a tree, for example, or a cowboy surveying the open desert from his horse. The tool prides itself on its ability to create videos that have realistic physics and beautiful shots.</p> <p>The tool’s capabilities include movement, morphing, text, and Janus, a 3D technique that creates depth by providing each view with multiple front faces. In exploring the 3D generated videos, I found them artistically stunning. However, when trying to create videos of my own—I was keen to see a brown bear fight a tiger—the app kept me waiting in the queue for hours and hours, with a message that it was slow due to extremely high demand.</p> <p>The tool was released only recently and is still in its early stages, so it’s fair to assume that such delays will be put to rest sooner than later, especially for paid users. For now, the average time is 120 seconds—but that’s once you’re at the top of the queue. The line length tends to vary widely depending on traffic to the site.</p> <p>Overall though, from what I’ve read and watched online from users, the outputs seem like signs of good things to come. However, each clip I’ve seen seems to have a small amount of warping, especially the more complicated prompts like “dinosaur enters office and tears up the place.” My advice is to keep an eye on this tool.</p> <div style="display: flex;

Through hand tracking, face tracking, and even multi-person tracking, the platform enables you to make and simulate lifelike and interactive character animations, including full-body motion capture and simulation of physical interactions.</p> <p>I found this tracking feature to be the platform’s real selling point. Without hiring actors, developers can physically act out the motions they need to add to characters or objects, which is not only a quick and easy way to add authenticity to 3D environments, it also enables creators to edit animations they need to change.</p> <p>To use the tool, first upload a video of yourself or another person—the multi-person tracking allows for up to eight people to be in the video. Next, upload your animated characters, create them with the built-in Ready Player Me, or use one of the app’s premade avatars.</p> <p>After that, you can customize settings like foot locking, hand-to-ground contact, and others, and then use the Rotoscope Pose Editor to trace the motion of your animated avatar directly over the uploaded video. In the end, you should receive a 3D animated character that fits your vision.</p> <div style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; padding: 20px;"> <div class="wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-large-font-size td_btn_large"><a class="wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button" style="border-radius: 38px;

It has an intuitive user interface; the first thing you see when you launch the website is a text box where you can input your prompt for the texture you want to generate.</p> <p>Below the text box is a drop-down with 10 texture options, including photorealistic, art nouveau, toon, and cyberpunk, making it particularly useful for visual effects artists and designers who need realistic and diverse textures for their projects. When the generation is complete, you’ll receive tileable texture and an interactive 3D render.</p> <p>The thing I liked most about the tool is that after the rendering you can adjust the result with the toolbar on the right hand side of the page for map strength, angular occlusion, and other settings until you’re happy with the texture package. The thing I disliked was how frequently I received a “failed to fetch” error. Obviously the tool is still in its early stages and needs some help recognizing and executing more prompts.</p> <div style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; padding: 20px;"> <div class="wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-large-font-size td_btn_large"><a class="wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button" style="border-radius: 38px; background-color: #478ac6;" href="https://link.technologyadvice.com/r/ponzu-main" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow sponsored">Visit Ponzu</a></div> </div> <figure id="attachment_226065" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-226065" style="width: 1000px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-226065 size-full" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%201000%20545'%3E%3C/svg%3E" alt="The Ponzu homepage." width="1000" height="545" data-lazy-srcset="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu.jpg 1000w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu-300x164.jpg 300w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu-768x419.jpg 768w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu-771x420.jpg 771w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu-696x379.jpg 696w" data-lazy-sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" data-lazy-src="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu.jpg" /><noscript><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-226065 size-full" src="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu.jpg" alt="The Ponzu homepage." width="1000" height="545" srcset="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu.jpg 1000w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu-300x164.jpg 300w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu-768x419.jpg 768w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu-771x420.jpg 771w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2024/06/ew_20240625-best-ai-3d-generators-ponzu-696x379.jpg 696w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></noscript><figcaption id="caption-attachment-226065" class="wp-caption-text">The Ponzu homepage</figcaption></figure> <h3><strong>Pros and Cons</strong></h3> <table style="width: 100%;"> <tbody> <tr> <th style="width: 50%; text-align: center;">Pros</th> <th style="width: 50%; text-align: center;">Cons</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Versatile applications</td> <td>Sometimes outputs a “Failed to fetch” error</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Customizable options</td> <td>Overall technical infrastructure could be improved</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h3><strong>Pricing</strong></h3> <ul> <li>Free to use</li> </ul> <h3><strong>Features</strong></h3> <ul> <li>AI texture generation</li> <li>Users can further customize the generated textures by adjusting parameters</li> <li>Enables adjustment of the specular and diffuse lighting</li> </ul> <p><img decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-224010 alignright" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20200%20200'%3E%3C/svg%3E" alt="GitHub icon." width="200" height="200" data-lazy-srcset="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2023/05/github-icon.png 200w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2023/05/github-icon-150x150.png 150w" data-lazy-sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" data-lazy-src="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2023/05/github-icon.png" /><noscript><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-224010 alignright" src="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2023/05/github-icon.png" alt="GitHub icon." width="200" height="200" srcset="https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2023/05/github-icon.png 200w, https://assets.eweek.com/uploads/2023/05/github-icon-150x150.png 150w" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" /></noscript></p> <h2><span class="ez-toc-section" id="neroic"></span><strong>NeROIC</strong><span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p><strong>Best for Capturing High-Quality Geometry</strong></p> <h3><strong>Overall Rating: 3</strong></h3> <ul> <li><strong>Cost: 5</strong></li> <li><strong>Feature Set: 3.2</strong></li> <li><strong>Ease of Use: 2.5</strong></li> <li><strong>Quality of Output: 2.5</strong></li> <li><strong>Support: 1</strong></li> </ul> <p>NeROIC (Neural Rendering of Objects from Online Image Collections) is an AI-based technology that can generate 3D models from 2D images.

This ensures that generated models can be easily imported and used in various workflows.</p> <h3><strong>Speed and Efficiency</strong></h3> <p>Generating 3D models can be a computationally intensive task. The AI 3D generator you choose should have optimized <a href="https://www.eweek.com/big-data-and-analytics/algorithms-ai/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">algorithms</a> and efficient processing capabilities to produce results quickly.</p> <h3><strong>Realistic Rendering</strong></h3> <p>When shopping for an AI 3D generator for your organization, look for a tool that can produce highly realistic and detailed 3D models. This includes accurate lighting, shadows, textures, and overall visual appearance. This is vital for creating lifelike and visually appealing virtual environments.</p> <h3><strong>Customizability</strong></h3> <p>The ability to customize and fine-tune generated 3D models is an invaluable feature. You should be able to adjust various parameters and properties to achieve the desired output, from lighting to background to overall visual context.</p> <h2><span class="ez-toc-section" id="how-to-choose-the-best-ai-3d-generator-for-your-business"></span><strong>How to Choose the Best AI 3D Generator for Your Business</strong><span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>Realize that all AI 3D generators do not function in the same way, and the best option for you and your business depends on your needs and preferences. Some companies may need a text-to-3D generator, while image-to-3D or video-to-3D generators may be more relevant for others.</p> <p>Even when you know the type of 3D generator you need, you must ensure that the tool you choose offers your desired features and capabilities. For instance, Meshcapade and Sloyd are both text-to-3D generators. However, Meshcapade can generate assets like human characters, while Sloyd is incapable of doing that; Sloyd’s strengths lie in generating objects like weapons, collectibles and architectural assets.</p> <p>To select the best AI 3D generator for your organization, you must first define business needs. Compare your needs with the offerings of various AI 3D software providers and determine which aligns most with your requirements.</p> <h2><span class="ez-toc-section" id="how-we-evaluated-the-best-ai-3d-generators"></span><strong>How We Evaluated the Best AI 3D Generators</strong><span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>To write this review, we analyzed the best AI 3D generators based on five key points, including cost, feature set, ease of use, quality of output and support.
