Blender

Hyper3D launched Rodin Gen-2.5 with claims of 10 million-plus polygons, 4-second low-detail generations, and editable Bang-to-Parts separation. Try the same asset across Blender, Unity, Unreal, or 3D-print workflows and tune it from 4s to 80s.

Stages AI demos show one-shot clips being turned into frames, prompts, storyboards, timelines, and Blender-ready scenes, with 100 camera rigs layered on top. The workflow compresses previsualization and 3D scene setup into one tool chain, though the evidence comes from a single creator and vendor account.

An 80.lv-cited report said Anthropic paid €240K to sponsor Blender, while Blender leadership said the deal was not an AI takeover and creator posts said the public patronage was later pulled. The connector still appears to ship, but the funding tie-in became a flashpoint inside open 3D communities.
