Damn it worked! Genie 3 world --> inpaint UI --> 4x topaz AI upscale --> train 3d gaussian splat
You can step inside a painting of Socrates from 1787. Better than any image-to-3d model I've seen.
I think Google has stumbled upon the killer app for VR -- the literal holodeck. https://t.co/otVr19r9zE
Also tried running this genie 3 creation through a classical photogrammetry pipeline to extract a textured 3d mesh that you can import into any 3d tool.
The radiance field obviously degrades more gracefully than the mesh, but it's still pretty useable! https://t.co/bwJSXJU652
Since people are asking, I’ve uploaded both the gaussian splat and 3d mesh here — works in browser, enjoy: https://t.co/1TojFUPVyu
