SLAT-Phys: Fast Material Property Field Prediction from Structured 3D Latents

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2603.23973v1 Announce Type: new Estimating the material property field of 3D assets is critical for physics-based simulation, robotics, and digital twin generation. Existing vision-based approaches are either too expensive and slow or rely on 3D information. We present SLAT-Phys, an end-to-end method that predicts spatially varying material property fields of 3D assets directly from a single RGB image without explicit 3D reconstruction.
