InHabit: Leveraging Image Foundation Models for Scalable 3D Human Placement
InHabit automatically generates large-scale 3D data of humans interacting with scenes by chaining 2D vision models to propose actions, insert figures, and optimize the results into scene-aligned SMPL-X bodies.

Claims
Applied to Habitat-Matterport3D, InHabit produces the first large-scale photorealistic 3D human-scene interaction dataset, containing 78K samples across 800 building-scale scenes with complete 3D geometry, SMPL-X bodies, and RGB images. Augmenting standard training data with our samples improves RGB-based 3D human-scene reconstruction and contact estimation, and in a perceptual user study our data is preferred in 78% of cases over the state of the art.
The assumption that off-the-shelf vision-language models will propose contextually meaningful actions and image-editing models will insert humans such that the subsequent optimization procedure can reliably produce physically plausible SMPL-X bodies aligned with scene geometry without artifacts or implausible configurations.
InHabit generates 78K photorealistic 3D human-scene interaction samples across 800 scenes by rendering scenes, using foundation models to propose actions and insert humans, then optimizing to SMPL-X bodies, improving 3D reconstruction and contact estimation.
