// 3D & MESH

Depth Maps and Image-to-Mesh

IMAGE__DEPTH estimates how far each pixel is from the camera, which is useful for 3D reconstruction and visual effects. MESH__GENERATE reconstructs a mesh from an image and can also remesh.

Nodes used

IMAGE__DEPTH

AI depth maps for 3D reconstruction and visual-effects pipelines.

MESH__GENERATE

Image-to-mesh reconstruction and remesh operations.

IMAGE__UPSCALE

Optional. Raise the source resolution before reconstruction.

How to set it up

  1. 01Start from INPUT__IMAGE and add IMAGE__DEPTH for a depth map, or MESH__GENERATE for a mesh.
  2. 02Run the graph in the workspace and open the result in the 3D preview.
  3. 03Publish when you are happy with it to produce meshes from the API.

What to expect

A single photo gives a plausible shape, not a measured one. Depth from one image is relative, so do not use it where exact dimensions matter. Clear, evenly lit subjects reconstruct best.
