In the UX design field, new tools and updates always help us create unique products. In this post, I’ve gathered five new excellent tools and updates to improve significantly the UX designer’s work. Ready to learn about the latest trends in the UX/UI world?
Spline Design
Spline Design now has a powerful new tool, AI 3D Generation. Using text prompts, you can create 3D objects and turn your images, characters or avatars into 3D images in the Spline Editor or dashboard.
Very conveniently, you can create your library of 3D objects. This is a plus when working on multiple projects. Another advantage is that you can create numerous variations from a single object.
I noticed that this tool works better with simple cues and simple objects. The more complex you describe something, the more unexpected the result will be.
