As we move towards a digital future, we’re seeing technology giants develop tools and hardware to bring digital humans into the real world. We have seen Samsung’s Project NEON that aims to introduce AI-powered humans to the real world. Now, Epic Games has created a unique browser-based tool to help users create, what they are calling as, MetaHumans.
“Up until now one of the most arduous tasks in 3D content creation has been constructing truly convincing digital humans. Even the most experienced artists require significant amounts of time, effort, and equipment, just for one character. After decades of research and development, and thanks to bringing companies like 3Lateral, Cubic Motion, and Quixel into the Epic family, that barrier is being erased through Unreal Engine, and we’re thrilled to introduce MetaHuman Creator,” said Vladimir Mastilovic, the VP of Epic Games’ Digital Humans Technology.
