PyTorch3D is a comprehensive library for 3D deep learning that brings differentiable rendering, geometric operations, and 3D data structures into the PyTorch ecosystem. It’s designed to make it easy to build and train neural networks that work directly with 3D data such as meshes, point clouds, and implicit surfaces. The library provides fast GPU-accelerated implementations of rendering pipelines, transformations, rasterization, and lighting—making it possible to compute gradients through full 3D rendering processes. Researchers use it for tasks like shape generation, reconstruction, view synthesis, and visual reasoning. PyTorch3D also includes utilities for loading, transforming, and sampling 3D assets, so models can be trained end-to-end from 2D supervision or partial data. Its modular design allows easy extension—components like differentiable rasterizers, mesh blending, or signed distance field (SDF) modules can be swapped or combined to test new architectures quickly.
