What is Hunyuan3D?
Hunyuan3D is an open-source large-scale 3D synthesis system developed by Tencent. It generates high-resolution textured 3D assets from a single image or a text prompt using a two-stage diffusion architecture — a shape model followed by a texture model.
Hunyuan3D produces models with full PBR (Physically-Based Rendering) materials — base color, metallic, and roughness maps — making the output ready for games, AR/VR, and3D printing. It exports in GLB, OBJ, and PLY formats compatible with Unity, Unreal, Blender, and Maya.
Whether you're a game developer prototyping props, an e-commerce brand building3D product visualizations, or a creator exploring AI 3D, Hunyuan3D delivers production-quality 3D models in under a minute — no GPU required when using our cloud-powered platform.
Why Choose Hunyuan3D?
Hunyuan3D combines a diffusion-based shape model with a dedicated texture model to deliver high-fidelity, production-ready 3D assets.
Image to 3D Model
Turn a single photo, sketch, or AI image into a fully textured 3D model. The model excels at single-object generation with clean geometry.
Text to 3D Generation
Describe the 3D model you want with a text prompt and Hunyuan3D generates a textured mesh directly from language.
PBR Texture Generation
Automatic PBR materials with base color, metallic, and roughness maps for photorealistic relighting in any engine.
Multi-View Reconstruction
Supports multi-view image input for more accurate 3D reconstruction and consistent geometry from every angle.
Multiple Output Formats
Export as GLB for web and game engines, OBJ for traditional 3D software, or PLY for point clouds and pipelines.
Open-Source by Tencent
Free for commercial and non-commercial use. Model weights and source code available on GitHub and Hugging Face.
How Hunyuan3D Works
Provide Image or Text
Upload a single image — a photo, sketch, or AI-generated picture — or describe the 3D model you want with a text prompt.
AI 3D Generation
Hunyuan3D's diffusion-based shape model builds the geometry, then the texture model applies high-resolution PBR materials.
Export & Use
Download your 3D model as GLB, OBJ, or PLY with full PBR materials. Use it in games, AR/VR, 3D printing, or any 3D workflow.
Two Ways to Generate 3D Models
Hunyuan3D supports both image-to-3D and text-to-3D, giving you flexibility whether you start from a reference or an idea.
Image to 3D Model
Best for converting existing photos, product shots, or concept art into 3D. Ideal for e-commerce, archiving, and rapid prototyping.
Text to 3D Model
Best for brainstorming and creating 3D from imagination. Describe any object and let Hunyuan3D bring it to three-dimensional life.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Hunyuan3D?
Hunyuan3D is an open-source large-scale 3D synthesis system developed by Tencent. It generates high-resolution, textured 3D assets from a single image or text prompt using diffusion-based shape and texture models.
Is Hunyuan3D free to use?
Yes, Hunyuan3D is open-source and free. You can try it online on Hugging Face Spaces or run it locally on an NVIDIA GPU (24GB+ VRAM recommended).
What file formats does Hunyuan3D support?
Hunyuan3D exports 3D models in GLB, OBJ, and PLY formats with full PBR materials including base color, metallic, and roughness maps.
Can I use Hunyuan3D commercially?
