Autodesk unveils research Project Bernini for Generative AI 3D shape creation
Autodesk is working to create generative models that could be used for different use cases across architecture , product design , entertainment and more .
Autodesk explore potential capabilities with AI through the experimental Project Bernini , a research effort focused on developing Generative AI for Design and Make industries . Autodesk spokespersons tell us more .
Bernini model generates shape and texture separately and does not confuse or meld those variables . So , water pitchers generated by our model are hollow in the middle and could actually hold water , as any real-world pitcher would need to do .
For the Design and Make industries , accuracy and productivity in 3D modelling is of the utmost importance . Whether you ’ re an architect , engineer , manufacturer or filmmaker , the geometric control and accuracy of your digital design is critical to the success of your final product .
That is why Autodesk is obsessed with geometry and our obsession is reflected in our software .
We ’ re excited to unveil a research effort we ’ re calling Project Bernini , and its first experimental Generative AI model that
At this stage , Project Bernini is strictly experimental and is not available for public use . quickly generates superior 3D shapes from a variety of inputs including a single 2D image , multiple images showing different views of an object , point clouds , voxels and text . Our first Bernini model is acutely geared toward professional geometric workflows and can generate multiple functional variations of a 3D shape from a given input .
Autodesk is working to create generative models that could be used for different use cases across architecture , product design , entertainment and more . We ’ re intently focused on generating functional 3D structures because the articles built or manufactured from the outputs of these models must work in the real world , serving the purpose that the designer has in mind .
A simple example of this would be a water pitcher . Many other 3D generative models might produce shapes that look like a pitcher with textures that improve their superficial appearance in a very specific lighting environment . But the
Just as important , we ’ re applying a truly generative approach that produces several variants , giving a designer choice and contributing to their creative workflow . According to Autodesk ’ s 2024 State of Design & Make report , 78 % of business leaders believe AI will enhance their industry and 79 % agree that AI will make their industry more creative .
The Autodesk AI Lab within Autodesk Research is a diverse team of scientists and specialists working on applying AI to aid in difficult tasks in design , manufacturing , architecture , engineering , and construction , as well as the creative processes in media and entertainment . They trained the Bernini model on ten million diverse 3D shapes – a composite dataset made up of publicly available data , a mixture of CAD objects and organic shapes .
At this stage , Project Bernini is strictly experimental and is not available for public use . �
