Speridlabs releases Idol, an open image-to-3D model

Speridlabs says Idol turns one image into a 3D object, including sides the image doesn’t show. The company claims it can generate 1 million splats in three seconds on consumer GPUs using less than 7.2 GB of VRAM. It has made weights, code and a demo available under Apache 2.0. A user who tried it with a microduck image praised the result.
