Recently, an innovative technology named LHM (Large-scale Human Model for Animation) has achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of 3D human body reconstruction, bringing new development directions and application prospects to the field. Reconstructing animatable 3D human bodies from a single image has been a highly challenging task, plagued by ambiguities in geometry, appearance, and deformation separation. Current state-of-the-art research mostly focuses on static human modeling, and these methods often rely on synthetic 3D scans for training, which greatly limits their applications in...

On March 17, Beijing Shengshu Technology Co., Ltd. announced that its video large model product, Vidu, has reached a strategic cooperation with Aura Productions, a renowned American animation studio, to jointly create the first overseas AI-original sci-fi anime series.
