What TRELLIS is

TRELLIS is a free, open-source research model for generating 3D assets from text or image prompts. It can create radiance fields, 3D Gaussians, and meshes using a shared Structured Latent representation, as well as variants and targeted edits to local regions. Its pretrained image-to-3D and text-to-3D models range from 342 million to 2 billion parameters and were trained on 500,000 3D objects. Example exports include textured meshes as GLB files and 3D Gaussians as PLY files. A Gradio demo can be installed and run locally. Running the model requires an NVIDIA GPU with at least 16 GB of memory, CUDA for compiling some submodules, and Python 3.8 or newer. Linux is tested; Windows setup is not fully tested. The project is intended for academic and research use, not commercial use. Its materials are strongest for artistic-style assets and have limited ability to generate photorealistic real-world objects. The repository recommends starting with an image for more detailed results than text-conditioned generation.

Good

  • Accepts both text and image prompts.
  • Can generate meshes, radiance fields, and 3D Gaussians.
  • Exports include GLB and PLY.
  • The project is free and open source.

Watch out

  • Requires an NVIDIA GPU with at least 16 GB memory.
  • Windows setup is not fully tested.
  • Photorealistic real-world generation is limited.
  • Project materials are not intended for commercial use.

Who it suits

TRELLIS suits researchers and users creating artistic-style 3D assets from text or images. It is intended for academic and research use, not commercial work.

Verdict

TRELLIS provides several 3D output types and supports prompt-based generation and local edits. Its hardware requirements, research-use terms, and limits with photorealistic objects make it a specialized option.
