Model Explorer at 0xr.space makes 3D models from pictures in three ways, with no modelling. Photo → 3D turns one photo into a textured model in one to two minutes. All photos → 3D splat takes 20 or more photos, or a video, of one object and builds a Gaussian splat in a few minutes. On a Meta Quest 3, Scan names the things in the room and makes the one you press or name.
Photo → 3D guesses the far side and allows 20 a day for each device and network. The splat builder is switched off at times. None makes a model from words, and none gives a CAD model with exact dimensions.
One photo, on any device: press Open and choose it. Photo → 3D takes one to two minutes; the back is guessed and the size is not measured. Good for a quick model of a small object.
Twenty or more photos or a video, on a phone or computer: press Open and choose them all. All photos → 3D splat shows every side you photographed, but a splat is not a mesh and cannot be downloaded as GLB, STL or USDZ.
On a Meta Quest 3: press Scan on the dock in the room, then press a thing's name or say it. Photo → 3D makes it from the headset's own photo, and its panel shows the size Scan measured. A Quest 3S takes one photo.
Only an idea, by voice: ask Zero to show you one. It builds a rough stand-in from simple shapes to look at and pull apart, which is not saved.
Questions
Is any of this free?
Yes, all of it, with no sign-in. Photo → 3D allows 20 models a day for each device and network.
Which one gives a model I can 3D print?
Photo → 3D, whose result is a mesh: Download STL is on its card's menu, with a free account. Its size is not measured, so set it in the slicer. A splat cannot be downloaded.
What do the camera features send and keep?
See the privacy page at https://0xr.space/privacy/ for what the camera features send and keep. 3D files you open are read on your device.
Can it make a model from a text description?
No. Model Explorer has no text-to-3D; Zero can only show a rough stand-in of simple shapes.
