HairDeck generates stylized hair cards and animations from single images

Researchers have developed HairDeck, a new method for generating stylized hair cards and animations from a single image. This diffusion transformer-based approach treats hair cards as unordered token sets, significantly improving accuracy and speed compared to previous autoregressive methods like CHARM. HairDeck produces animatable assets ready for downstream use in games and avatars, outperforming existing pipelines in Chamfer distance and card-orientation error. AI

IMPACT This new method could streamline asset creation for games and virtual avatars by automating the generation of animatable hair.
