Any software that can do automated line art?

SUMMARY

There is currently no software within Adobe Photoshop that can perform automated line art effectively. Vector illustration programs such as Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator can generate vector-based line art from clean pencil sketches, but the results are often unsatisfactory for professional use. Professionals typically prefer to manually trace over sketches using a tablet for optimal line quality. For creating line art from 3D models, software like Poser can produce acceptable results.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of vector illustration software, specifically Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator
  • Familiarity with digital drawing techniques using tablets
  • Knowledge of 3D modeling software, particularly Poser
  • Basic concepts of line art and its applications in digital art
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore advanced techniques in Adobe Illustrator for manual line tracing
  • Research the capabilities of Inkscape for vector-based line art creation
  • Learn about Poser's features for generating line art from 3D models
  • Investigate alternative software options for automated line art generation
USEFUL FOR

Digital artists, illustrators, and graphic designers seeking to improve their line art techniques or explore automated solutions for line art creation.

What do mean by "automatic line art," specifically?
 
Most vector illustration programs like Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator will create vector based line art off of clean pencil sketches. It generally sucks though, so most pros don't even bother and just trace over it again with the tablet to get nice lines.

For real-life photographs you can pretty much forget about getting nice lines.

There are some programs like Poser that will make nice line art off of 3D models though.
