What Luma AI does
Luma's Dream Machine turns text prompts and images into short video clips known for smooth, fluid motion and a slightly dreamlike look. Its image-to-video mode is especially popular for animating portraits and photos of people.
Beyond video generation, Luma AI built its reputation on 3D scene capture — turning phone footage into interactive 3D scenes — which is why the name covers both a video tool and a 3D toolset.
