view on github
Overview
Text2Gaussian is an open-source pipeline that converts text descriptions into 3D Gaussian Splat models. Type a prompt like "a vintage brass teapot" and get a fully-formed 3D asset in approximately 17 seconds, output as a PLY file with 200,000+ vertices.
Pipeline
How It Works
The pipeline operates through three sequential stages:
- Text to Image: Google's Gemini AI generates images from text descriptions.
- Image to 3D: Meta's SAM 3D Objects model processes the generated images.
- Output: results are saved as PLY files compatible with standard 3D viewers.
Architecture
- stage0/: batch processing pipeline for generating multiple assets.
- stage1/: text-to-image generation via Gemini integration.
- runpod-server/: GPU-accelerated 3D conversion API running on A100.
- viewer/: web-based 3D visualization interface.
