Show HN: TRELLIS.2 image-to-3D running on Mac Silicon – no Nvidia GPU needed
TRELLIS.2 for Apple Silicon Run TRELLIS.2 image-to-3D generation natively on Mac. This is a port of Microsoft’s TRELLIS.2 — a state-of-the-art image-to-3D model — from CUDA-only to Apple Silicon via PyTorch MPS. No NVIDIA GPU required. Results Generates 400K+ vertex meshes from single images in ~3.5 minutes on M4 Pro. Output includes textured OBJ and GLB files with PBR materials, ready for use in 3D applications. Example (nearest-neighbor sampling, trilinear interpolation WIP) Input → Generated 3D mesh (424K vertices, 858K triangles) Requirements macOS on Apple Silicon (M1 or later) Python 3.11+ 24GB+ unified memory recommended (the 4B model is large) ~15GB disk space for model weights (downloaded on first run) Quick Start # Clone this repo git clone…
