Light is a complex phenomenon because it can have both wave and particle properties. Light play in the creation processes of a 3D configurator a important role. Texture artists are interested in the radiation model of light because it describes the interaction of light and matter. It is important to understand how light rays [...]
Three-dimensional videos and 3D configurators have existed in one form or another since the early 1900s, but it was not until the 1950s that they became popular through the use of anaglyph glasses. The necessary equipment for the video production in 3D made at that time the creation of 3D videos on amateur basis very [...]
Users have long been able to watch 3D videos and movies (for example about 3D configurators) on YouTube, the world`s most popular video platform. In fact, YouTube directly supports 3D videos and allows them not only to upload them, but also to switch between different quality levels and different types of 3D types. So [...]
Update: Since September 2017 VoxVR (very useful in relationship with 3D configurators) supports direct export to Sketchfab. VoxVR is a new creative tool that lets you create your next voxel masterpiece in Virtual Reality (VR). Creating Voxel Art has never been so intuitive and easy. Stand in your own artwork while you create or [...]
Recently, Sketchfab (very useful to view models for 3D configurators) officially announced that Augmented Reality (AR) content will be supported on Android devices in the near future. This has been the case with iOS devices for quite some time. The mobile Sketchfab app has been enhanced with the Android "ARCore" functionality, which gives Android [...]
Have you tried MasterpieceVR (very useful in relationship with 3D configurators)? The app is a new way to model and draw in VR with intuitive and dynamic tools. And even better, you can sculpt in real time with friends or colleagues in the same virtual room, or invite viewers to watch them work. Unlike [...]
If you follow the graphics technology for 3D configurators closely, you may have recently heard of the glTF file format. glTF (graphics language Transmission Format) is the result of years of efforts by the Khronos Group to develop an open, royalty-free and interoperable format for exchanging 3D graphics. Below is an example of this [...]
The photogrammetry software company CaptureReality added a Sketchfab export function (very useful in creation processes of 3D configurators) to its application a few months ago. The software offers the possibility to quickly and accurately generate 3D content from photos or laser scans. In addition, CaptureReality has added an incredibly useful option to automatically decimate [...]
Sometimes you need to quickly release some materials on a sample mode. Maybe you`re a CG artist (can be specialized in creating 3D configurators) who needs to share progress with your colleagues, or you`re selling textures and want to present yourself accordingly. Of course you can do it all with Sketchfab, but in practice [...]
As you`re probably heard, Sketchfab has developed native apps for using virtual reality (VR) content on the HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, and Samsung Gear VR. The headsets are very useful to view 3D configurators. These demo apps show some great Sketchfab scenes, but you can also see all 750.000 models of Sketchfab on these [...]
