What is Abstract3D
Abstract3D is a group of companies developing vertically integrated technology for the 3D pipeline. It offers a unified platform that combines 3D optimization, material creation, real-time collaboration, and cloud delivery. The platform consists of four products: InstaLOD for 3D optimization and CAD conversion, InstaMAT for material authoring and texturing, RSX Engine for real-time 3D collaboration, and Polyverse for cloud asset management. These products are designed to work together seamlessly, addressing the fragmentation and inefficiencies common in traditional 3D pipelines.
How to use Abstract3D
- Explore the platform: Visit the Abstract3D website to learn about the four products and how they integrate.
- Choose your product: Depending on your needs, select InstaLOD for optimization, InstaMAT for materials, RSX Engine for collaboration, or Polyverse for cloud delivery.
- Integrate into your pipeline: Each product offers tools and SDKs (e.g., C++ SDK for InstaMAT) to integrate into existing workflows.
- Use the cloud services: For cloud-based asset management and processing, use Polyverse with its REST APIs.
- Collaborate in real-time: Use RSX Engine for browser-based, multi-user editing and sharing via URL.
