The world’s first reasoning video model, and the first to generate studio-grade HDR. Now with an all-new Draft Mode for rapid iteration in creative workflows, and state of the art physics and consistency.
I am excited to hunt Ray3 — the world’s first reasoning video model, and the first to generate studio-grade HDR.
🚀 What’s new in Ray3:
✅ Reasoning engine that thinks in visuals + language
✅ All-new Draft Mode for rapid iteration
✅ State-of-the-art physics and scene consistency
✅ Visual annotations to direct motion, blocking & camera
✅ Native 10/12/16-bit HDR for stunning color depth
✅ Production-ready motion, crowds, lighting, caustics, motion blur, and more
With reasoning, Ray3 understands nuanced directions, judges its outputs, and creates complex multi-step motion faster than ever — giving you precise control and reliably better results.
This looks really cool! The idea of using just a phone to create high-quality 3D models with studio-grade HDR is such a game changer for accessibility in VFX.
I'm curious about how the photorealistic rendering actually processes reflections and textures with just a smartphone camera. Does it use some sort of AI to enhance the details captured?
I've seen so many posts from creators expressing their frustration about the costs of traditional 3D modeling equipment. It's great to see a solution that really opens the door for content creators and indie filmmakers.
If you're looking to connect with more digital artists or indie filmmakers, I know some groups that would be really interested in checking this out.
The reasoning engine approach is interesting - most video AI tools generate based on prompts but can't really understand or evaluate their own output quality.
How does the Draft Mode actually work for iteration? Can you make specific changes to scenes without regenerating the entire video, or is it more about quickly testing different prompt variations?
The HDR claims sound impressive but how does it perform with complex lighting scenarios? Most AI video still struggles with realistic shadows and reflections in multi-object scenes
I can already imagine using it for quick prototypes when showing concepts to clients.
@karanganesan @vibrantnebula @gravicle @saaswarrior congratulations on the launch! Product looks great with better quality output. I will try it in my platform.
Does it support contextual photo or video editing similar to Nano banana?
Hey Luma AI team,
Big congrats on the 3.0 launch - excited to keep using it in our projects via the API :D
We’re also live on Product Hunt today with BigMotion.ai (organic ads), where we integrated Luma AI for creating UGC Hooks
Impressed with SOTA scene consistency and comprehensibility of the physical world of Luma Ray 3! Can't wait to try it out!
