About Autodepth Ai

AutoDepth AI is a Blender add‑on that transforms 2D images into 3D data using online AI services. It automatically generates depth height maps, applies displacement mapping, and produces 3D models from those maps. A text‑to‑image feature lets users create images from descriptive prompts directly within Blender. A recent update added a one‑click local installation that sets up Stable Diffusion and ControlNet, enabling higher‑resolution depth maps in roughly five seconds.

The add‑on requires an active internet connection because it relies on external AI services. It has been developed and tested on Windows only; support for macOS and Linux is planned but not yet confirmed. The developer recommends using the official Blender download rather than the Steam version. AutoDepth AI runs on Blender 4.3 through 5.0 and works with both the Cycles and Eevee render engines. It is distributed under the GPL license.

Features

• AI-powered depth height map generation from images, producing higher-resolution maps in about five seconds
• Text-to-image generation from descriptive prompts, created inside the add-on
• Displacement mapping applied to models
• 3D model generation from the depth maps
• One-click local installation that installs and runs Stable Diffusion and ControlNet, followed by an installation check
• Applies to terrains, architectural visualizations, and digital art

Best for

Blender artists who want to convert 2D images into depth maps, displacement effects, and full 3D models, especially for terrain, architectural visualization, and digital art projects.
