How to run PSHuman without a GPU
How can I run PSHuman without a GPU or a local install?
PSHuman has open weights, so you can run it yourself, but you need the hardware: more than 40GB of VRAM. Without a GPU, the simplest route is a hosted version. In OTOY Studio, PSHuman runs in the browser from 69 credits (€0.69) per run, with nothing to install, on the same canvas as 100+ other image, video and 3D models.
A research model that reconstructs a photorealistic 3D human from a single photo, using multiview diffusion.
Running it yourself
| Open weights | The PSHuman checkpoint is on Hugging Face. |
| License | The code is MIT and the weights are CC BY 4.0, which allows commercial use with attribution. The pipeline also uses SMPL-X body models, which have their own terms. |
| Hardware | The authors' FAQ says the 768 resolution model requires "over 40GB of VRAM", so it doesn't fit on an RTX 4090. |
| Operating system | Linux, NVIDIA GPU (Python 3.10, CUDA 12.1). |
| ComfyUI | No. |
