Avatar SDK
Create 3D game avatars, generate 3D avatars from a selfie, and easily integrate into existing applications.
What is Avatar SDK?
Avatar SDK is a tool for creating 3D avatars from photos or generating them from scratch for use in games and applications. You can upload a selfie and the tool converts it into a customisable 3D character model. The SDK is designed to integrate into existing games and apps through APIs and SDKs, making it useful for developers who need avatar creation features without building the technology from the ground up. It offers both a free tier for experimentation and paid options for production use.
