Patent number: 11741668Abstract: Some implementations relate to methods, systems, and computer-readable media to generate text tags for games. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method to generate a 3D mesh for an object using a trained machine learning model includes providing a two-dimensional (2D) image of the object as input to the trained machine learning model, obtaining a template three-dimensional (3D) mesh, and generating, using the trained machine learning model and based on the 2D image and the template 3D mesh, a 3D mesh for the object, wherein the 3D mesh for the object is obtained by deforming the template 3D mesh and is usable to map a texture or to generate a 3D animation of the object.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2021Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: Roblox CorporationInventors: Ramsey Jones, Jared Lafer, Rebecca Kantar
