Luma AI in TouchDesigner - Import Geometry, Point Clouds, Environment Maps and more!

Bring your Luma AI reality captures to TouchDesigner in this easy, no code tutorial! I will go through how to import point clouds, geometry (obj and usdz), as well as 360 images (HDR environment maps) into TouchDesigner with just a few clicks, and how to render them to achieve physically based lighting effects like reflections in minutes.

[@melinamelina660]

nice tutorial! is this possible to achieve with the free version of touch designer?

[@water__shed]

yep! you will just be limited in your render resolution (and you will need to make sure you have point cloud files that are under 1280x1280

[@serenadevereux7676]

do you know if its possible to get point clouds with colour from luma?

[@water__shed]

you probably need to get the obj with color, then convert to point cloud afterwards (using TD or another software)

How do you download from Lumalabs? It doesn't allow the option

[@water__shed]

it needs to be a capture you created on your account, then you can download it from their web app

[@pq8py]
