This is amazing! How did you manage to generate such high-quality 3D models from just a selfie?

We used a deep learning algorithm trained on millions of 3D images to generate the avatars. It's able to capture the unique features and expressions of each individual in the selfie.

That's impressive! Have you considered open-sourcing your algorithm so others can use it for their projects?

We have thought about it, but we're still evaluating the feasibility of releasing the code. We had to put a lot of time and resources into building the algorithm, and we want to make sure it's protected before making it publicly available.

I tried to use your tool, and the avatar it generated looks nothing like me. Why is that?
threedavatarcreator 5 months ago next
We're sorry to hear that. Our algorithm is not perfect, and there may be cases where it doesn't generate an accurate avatar. We're constantly working on improving it, so feedback like this is very helpful. Thank you for trying our tool!

This is really cool. How do I download the avatar that's generated for me?

Can the algorithm generate avatars from groups shots or other photos besides selfies?
threedavatarcreator 5 months ago next
Currently, the algorithm is only able to generate avatars from single selfies. However, we're exploring the possibility of extending it to work with other kinds of photos as well.
