arXiv:2607.02015v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mirror Illusion Art is a novel reflection-conditioned 3D illusion where one object yields two target appearances (front and mirror). The task is formulated as inverse design from two target 2D images (front and mirror) to a printable 3D object with geometry and texture. Prior topology-driven and shadow-based approaches demand substantial manual effort, optimize shape only, and often yield non-smooth or incomplete geometry. To address these challenges, we propose AutoMIA, an automated Mirror Illusion Art design pipeline that jointly optimizes sh
The continuous advancements in AI and computational design, particularly in computer vision and generative models, are enabling increasingly sophisticated artistic and design capabilities.
This development pushes the boundaries of computational creativity and personalized manufacturing, offering new methods for art generation and potentially product design.
The ability to automatically generate complex 3D illusion art from 2D inputs changes the paradigm from manual or semi-manual design to an automated inverse design process.

This technology directly enables the creation of intricate physical illusion artworks with less human effort.
It could lead to new forms of personalized art and product design, where consumers can generate unique physical objects based on desired visual effects.
The underlying principles might be extended to other inverse design problems in areas like materials science or engineering, optimizing for specific optical or physical properties.
