Ex Meta Engineer Develops Tech That Makes Any Screen 3D Using a Camera

A former Meta engineer developed True3D Labs technology that creates 3D viewing experiences on any screen using only a front-facing camera. The system tracks head position in real-time to reproject scenes with motion parallax, eliminating the need for special glasses or hardware. It uses facial landmark detection and six-degree-of-freedom head pose estimation to treat the screen as a window into a 3D world. The platform supports volumetric video, voxels, and Gaussian splats, with APIs available for web developers to integrate into applications, game captures, and real-time renders from engines like Unity and Blender.
