Show Wood: Empowering 100+ Taiwanese Woodworkers with an AI Image-to-3D & Web AR Platform



The Challenge:

As the world accelerates toward digital transformation, how can Taiwan’s traditional woodcraft not only survive but shine on the global stage? ““Show Wood”” bridges heritage and innovation by empowering over 100 Taiwanese woodworking SMEs with an AI-driven platform that turns ordinary product photos into immersive 3D and Web AR experiences—breathing new digital life into centuries-old craftsmanship.



Technical Breakthrough (The Solution):

“Show Wood” pioneers an intelligent AI platform that makes advanced 3D-AR technology accessible to everyone. Users simply upload product images, and within minutes, the system automatically generates photorealistic 3D and AR models. Leveraging AI image reconstruction and model optimization, “Show Wood” transforms industry-grade 3D/AR workflows into an intuitive plug-and-play solution—helping e-commerce brands elevate their digital presence without any 3D expertise.



Reimagining Web AR Experiences:

With Web-based AR Virtual Try-On, customers can visualize furniture in true scale within their own spaces—no app download required. The integrated 3D Configurator enables instant switching of wood grains and color variations, empowering customization, building confidence, and increasing conversion rates through highly personalized experiences.



Impact & Results:

Backed by Taiwan Ministry of Economic Affairs' Small and Medium Enterprise and Startup Administration 5G Innovation Program, “Show Wood” is redefining how local artisans compete globally. Participating SMEs have seen up to 94% higher conversion rates and 40% fewer product returns. By fusing craftsmanship with augmented reality, “Show Wood” democratizes digital innovation—making Taiwan’s artistry more visible, immersive, and future-ready than ever before.
