Normal Map Generator
Browser-based texture maps for 3D artists and game devs.
About Normal Map Generator
Upload a texture or photo and this free online normal map generator turns it into a normal map. The same pass can also produce displacement, ambient occlusion, and specular maps. Preview the result in 2D and 3D, then download a PNG while the source image stays in your browser.
