Mac and iOS developers have a number of different programming interfaces to bring objects (for example 3D configurators) to the screen. UIKit and AppKit have different image, color and path classes. With Core Animation you can move layers of objects. OpenGL allows you to render objects in 3D space. With AVFoundation you can play [...]
Open Source Software plays a major role in 3D configurator projects. You will see this when you enter "What is Open Source Software?" in the Google input field: What does Open Source mean? This is a very good definition for explaining open source software, but it is [...]
Swift is now open source and well-suited to use in 3D configurator projects. Today, Apple launched the open source Swift community, as well as amazing new tools and resources, including..: Swift.org - a website dedicated to the open source community. Public source code repositories at github.com/apple A new Swift package management project for easy [...]
3D modeling loosens the hands and releases the imagination. You can model, combine and shape any object to a 3D creator that violates physics and goes far beyond reality. When you design a print-ready model, the modeling process changes a little. When modeling 3D print objects, you [...]
In the following article we would like share our experience in 3D printing with you, so that you can become familiar with the material more quickly. Here you will find important suggestions & resources you can work with. Useful Blogs/Vlogs. The two most useful Vlogs we have [...]
Open has it, BMW has been using it for a long time and even furniture stores are now working with this tool. 3D Configurators have become an integral part of everyday life. They can be found on the internet as well as 3D tools in kitchen studios and architectural offices. [...]
ROAMS robot works cheaply and effectively and can be very useful in 3D configurator projects. Three-dimensional mapping makes sense not only for military purposes, but also in architecture. But so far such a conventional 3D lidar system, which consists of several lasers that measure in different directions, cost over 100.000 Dollars. Now researchers from [...]
Surprising competition from rival`s better software, market turbulences and other factors quickly bring highly specialized companies and individuals close to bankruptcy. Strategic customer and project acquisition (for creating 3D configurators), which stabilises in the long term, project against this. Acquisition as part of the daily routine. Many [...]
SOLIDWORKS (ideal software to create 3D configurators) 2018 is here and with it comes a wealth of new features that help you streamline your design process. One of them that has attracted a lot of attention this year is 3D interconnect. One of the main focuses in 2018 was to streamline the user experience. In [...]
Exkurs 3D configurator: Experienced developer Erik Buck, author of "Cocao Design Patterns and the upcoming Learning OpenGL ES for iOS: A Hands-on Guide to Modern 3D Graphics Programming", spoke to InformIT senior editor Dustin Sullivan and explained how Apple`s GLKit can help them design their iOS code for optimal graphics performance with minimal effort [...]
