Arbor

Explicit Geometric Conditioning for Controllable 3D Asset Generation

Arbor is a text-to-3D generation model with explicit geometry controls. It accepts a prompt and typed constraint meshes for hull, avoidance, and touch regions.

Please note: For individuals or organizations generating annual revenue of US $1,000,000 (or local currency equivalent) or more, regardless of the source of that revenue, you must obtain an enterprise commercial license directly from Stability AI before commercially using Arbor, derivative works of Arbor, or outputs from Arbor.

Model Description

• Developed by: Stability AI
• Authors: Jan-Niklas Dihlmann, Andreas Engelhardt, Simon Donne, Hendrik Lensch, Mark Boss
• Model type: Text and geometry constrained 3D generation model
• Model details: Arbor generates a geometry-conditioned sparse structure that is decoded into a mesh with the TRELLIS SLAT mesh decoder.
• Base stack: TRELLIS text-to-3D and TRELLIS.2 constraint encoding components
