This article deals with overcoming the unconscious boundaries that are often set in a project to create a 3D configurator. It then describes the various techniques that John Cormack has used to develop his Visible Surface Determination (VSD) and Culling (VSD) algorithms in Quake. This includes a description of the potentially visible set (PVS), [...]
Armory is an open source 3D game engine with full Blender integration that makes it a complete game development tool for example to create a 3D configurator. The result is a unified workflow from start to finish that lets you work faster. You no longer have to switch between different applications to constantly export [...]
At a basic level, the natural world can be modelled as the interplay of energy and matter (for example in form of a 3D configurator). This interaction can in turn be observed by the viewer through the visible appearance of the world. In this model of the natural world, the appearance of an object [...]
Iray for 3ds Max is a plugin renderer developed by Lightworks that creates physically accurate renderings for example to create a 3D configurator in real time by tracking light paths. It unleashes the full power of iRay's interactivity and scalability with an easy-to-use, intuitive workflow that maximizes productivity by providing instant visual feedback during scene [...]
Portal culling is a process by which a 3D scene in a 3D configurator can be subdivided into areas called cells, which are connected to each other by portals. A portal is a window in 3D space that allows objects in one cell (the "out" cell) to be seen from another cell (the "in" cell). [...]
React 360 is a framework for creating 3D and VR user interfaces. Based on React - a library that simplifies the creation of complex user interfaces - React 360 allows you to use familiar tools and concepts to create immersive 360 content like a 3D configurator on the Web. [...]
Creating a multires mesh in Blender works just like adding any other modifier to a mesh object. Multires are often important in 3D configurator projects. The Multiresolution Modifier resembles the Subdivision Surface Modifier in appearance. By default, the Multiresolution Modifier starts with zero subdivisions on its mesh. [...]
3D design is often one of the least discussed aspects of 3D printing, but one of the most important. Before you can print an object with a 3D printer, it must first be designed. Using CAD software, students can design any type of 3D object like a 3D configurator they need, and then create [...]
The latest version of the developer platform Wikitude AR is available since July 2018. Equipped with the widest range of Augmented Reality (AR) features on the market, Wikitude SDK 8.0 is the entry-level tool for developers and enterprises who want to benefit from endless AR capabilities and solutions. Wikitude AR plays often more a [...]
Unity 2017.3 provides out-of-the-box support for Vuforia 7. Developers can create cross-platform AR apps like a 3D configurator that combine 3D graphics with all types of physical objects and environments directly from the Unity editor. Learn what's new with Unity and Vuforia, how to get started, and where to get assets. [...]
