OpenAI Text To 3D Models | 2023 ⭐

# Shap-E

This is the official code and model release for [Shap-E: Generating Conditional 3D Implicit Functions](https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.02463).

- See [Usage](https://github.com/openai/shap-e#usage) for guidance on how to use this repository.
- See [Samples](https://github.com/openai/shap-e#samples) for examples of what our text-conditional model can generate.

# Samples

Here are some highlighted samples from our text-conditional model. For random samples on selected prompts, see [samples.md](https://github.com/openai/shap-e/blob/main/samples.md).

# Usage

Install with `pip install -e .`.

To get started with examples, see the following notebooks:

- [sample\_text\_to\_3d.ipynb](https://github.com/openai/shap-e/blob/main/shap_e/examples/sample_text_to_3d.ipynb) - sample a 3D model, conditioned on a text prompt.
- [sample\_image\_to\_3d.ipynb](https://github.com/openai/shap-e/blob/main/shap_e/examples/sample_image_to_3d.ipynb) - sample a 3D model, conditioned on a synthetic view image. To get the best result, you should remove background from the input image.
- [encode\_model.ipynb](https://github.com/openai/shap-e/blob/main/shap_e/examples/encode_model.ipynb) - loads a 3D model or a trimesh, creates a batch of multiview renders and a point cloud, encodes them into a latent, and renders it back. For this to work, install Blender version 3.3.1 or higher, and set the environment variable `BLENDER_PATH` to the path of the Blender executable.
