OpenLRM
Open-source reimplementation of the Large Reconstruction Model: single image to 3D NeRF in seconds.
About
OpenLRM is a from-scratch open reimplementation of Adobe's LRM paper, built by Zexin He and Tengfei Wang with compute support from Shanghai AI Lab. It predicts a triplane NeRF from a single image in about five seconds and exports textured meshes or turntable videos. Small, base, and large variants were trained on Objaverse and MVImgNet, and the repo ships training code, Blender rendering scripts, and a Hugging Face demo.
The code is Apache-2.0, but the released weights carry a CC-BY-NC 4.0 license, so they are research-only and cannot be used commercially. That split license is the key gotcha: fine for study and prototyping, not for shipping products.

Benchmarks
No published benchmarks; qualitative comparisons in the repo
Provider-reported unless a source says otherwise. Benchmarks are marketing-adjacent by nature — treat them as directional.
Use cases
Trust score — 6/10
Scored 6/10 (metrics tier, metrics-v1). Evidence: 1,256 GitHub stars with Apache-2.0 code confirmed via the repo page; reproduces the peer-reviewed LRM paper with training and inference code. Strengths: faithful open reimplementation with the full training pipeline published. Docked for: (1) weights are CC-BY-NC-4.0, research-only, blocking commercial use; (2) superseded by later feed-forward 3D models, with maintenance quiet since 2024. License: code Apache-2.0, weights CC-BY-NC-4.0.
