Portrait of Bowen Zhang Tencent Hunyuan · 3D
// Researcher · 3D Generative AI

Hi, I'm Bowen Zhang

Researcher at Tencent Hunyuan, building the Hunyuan3D family of 3D foundation models.

My research lies at the intersection of computer vision, computer graphics and generative AI. I focus on large-scale 3D asset generation — from compact 3D latent representations and image/text-to-3D diffusion, to production-ready PBR materials and end-to-end pipelines for game-ready assets. Before joining Tencent, I studied at Xi'an Jiaotong University with Prof. Xi Zhao, working on point cloud completion and 3D shape understanding.

01Research Interests

What I'm working on

3D Generative Models

Scalable native 3D generation from images and text, compact 3D latent spaces, and multi-modal controllable generation.
