Use our free and fast online tool to convert your HEIC (High Efficiency Image File Format) image or logo into 3D OBJ (Wavefront) mesh/model files suitable for printing with a 3D printer or for loading into your favorite 3D editing package.
Here are three simple steps to create an OBJ file from a HEIC file.
Our tool converts image (bitmap) data into 3D geometry, which is then saved to the common OBJ file format.
The HEIC to OBJ tool can convert the most common image file formats, such as PNG, JPG or any one of our supported image formats. The output is provided in OBJ format, which can be used in most 3D graphics applications.
3D geometry is created based on the luminosity of each pixel in the source image. For example, using the default tool settings, a black pixel represents a 3D pixel height of 0mm, and a white pixel represents a 3D pixel height of 10mm. Colors in between these will be converted to a 3D pixel in this range.
This option reverses the black-to-white range conversion, so with this option set, a black pixel will be rendered as a 3D pixel of 10mm in height, and a white pixel will be rendered as 0mm.
The "Detail" option allows you to control the resolution of the created OBJ file. Low detail will generate the model quickly and result in a smaller file. The High option will take longer to generate and can result in very large download files.
With this option, the HEIC to OBJ converter will attempt to remove or smooth out any spikes in the resulting OBJ 3D model. Spikes are usually caused by highly contrasting adjacent pixels in the source HEIC file.
The HEIC you upload can be any size; however, our tool will resize your image to a maximum of 800x800 pixels for normal users, and for premium subscription holders, this is increased to a maximum of 1200x1200 pixels.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your HEIC file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the HEIC to OBJ conversion has completed, you can download your OBJ file straight away.
We aim to process all HEIC to OBJ conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.
We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.
Yes, of course! We do not store the HEIC file you submit to us. The resulting OBJ file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
Yes! Our HEIC to OBJ tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our HEIC conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.
Yes! If your HEIC file contains textured geometry, the texture image files along with the texture coordinates (UV data) will be exported with the final OBJ file.

The HEIC is a modern image format, with the final specification completed in 2015. The format is a container format, which, while mostly used for storing image data, can actually support video, audio, and text data streams.
HEIC files are binary in nature and offer an alternative to existing digital photo formats such as JPEG features better compression while retaining comparable image quality. In some cases, the file size can be 50% that of the equivalent JPG file.

The OBJ file format, originally created by Wavefront Technologies and later adopted by many other 3D software vendors, is a simple text-based file format for describing 3D models/geometry. This data can include vertices, faces, normals, texture coordinates, and references to external texture files.
As the format is text-based, it is relatively straightforward to parse in 3D modeling applications. A downside of the text-based format is that the files can be rather large compared to similar binary formats such as STL and compressed files such as 3MF.
Our tool will save any material and texture files separately; these additional files will be included with your final OBJ file at the time of download.
