OC1 sub-project: 3Dify
Summary of the project
3Dify is a user-friendly and open-source web application to empower end-users to effortlessly convert 2D images into realistic 3D avatars requiring no technical skills in 3D modeling. 3Dify makes the best out of AI, intending to minimize the craft-making for extracting face features and converting them into MakeHuman representation. However, users are not substituted by AI solutions, as they can still manually refine facial features, select hairstyles, fine-tune colours and body proportions, and even add emotional expressions, creating a highly versatile tool for avatar authoring. The active role of end-users sets a new paradigm, allowing individuals to create semi-realistic avatars leveraging Unity for high-fidelity rendering, real-time shadow generation, advanced customization, dynamic animations, and emotional feedback.
How to know more
3Dify was developed by ISISLab, the research laboratory at Università degli Studi di Salerno (UNISA), who cooperated with the Centro Regionale Information Communication Technology.
