From Blender to AI Video: Building a Browser-Based Import Bridge

Описание и применение

Добавление в Blender позволяет быстро экспортировать сцены в Klox, упрощая переход от 3D‑композиции к AI‑генерации видео.

Задача

Moving between a desktop 3D scene in Blender and a browser-based AI workflow requires repetitive export, file lookup, application switching, upload, and project selection.

Результат

The add‑on streamlines the workflow by eliminating manual export and upload steps, enabling quick iteration from 3D composition to AI‑generated media.

Рабочий процесс

• Create or assemble a Blender scene with desired geometry, camera, and timing.
• Open the 3D Viewport sidebar (N) and select the Klox tab.
• Choose an export mode: Snapshot, Animation, or Local file.
• Click "Import to Klox" to start the process.
• The add‑on renders or copies the media, starts a temporary ThreadingHTTPServer on 127.0.0.1, and opens the Klox import page in the browser.
• The browser authenticates the user, fetches the media from the local bridge, uploads it to Klox storage, and creates a file node in the selected canvas.
• Klox persists the import record, ensures idempotency, and returns a completion receipt to Blender.
• Blender restores its original settings and remembers the canvas for future imports.

Доказательства

The button is called Import to Klox. Behind it is a Python loopback server, a browser handoff, and a persistent import operation whose success condition is a saved canvas node.

Источник

The add‑on exposes three modes: Snapshot, Animation, Local file.

Источник

Each export starts a Python ThreadingHTTPServer bound to 127.0.0.1 on an automatically assigned port.

Источник

The browser connects to the local bridge and uploads to storage. The cloud server never needs to reach into the user’s computer.
