User studies show 61.7% raters to prefer our approach over DreamFusion. Our method, dubbed Magic3D, can create high quality 3D mesh models in 40 minutes, which is 2× faster than DreamFusion (reportedly taking 1.5 hours on average), while also achieving higher resolution. Using the coarse representation as the initialization, we further optimize a textured 3D mesh model with an efficient differentiable renderer interacting with a high-resolution latent diffusion model.

In this paper, we address these limitations by utilizing a two-stage optimization framework.įirst, we obtain a coarse model using a low-resolution diffusion prior and accelerate with a sparse 3D hash grid structure. However, the method has two inherent limitations: (a) extremely slow optimization of NeRF and (b) low-resolution image space supervision on NeRF, leading to low-quality 3D models with a long processing time.

DreamFusion has recently demonstrated the utility of a pre-trained text-to-image diffusion model to optimize Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF), achieving remarkable text-to-3D synthesis results.
