Interactive 3D & Virtual Reality: Beyond CAD
 

CAD as an industry will continue to expand and occupy more and more ‘data niches’ in society that traditionally have been isolated in professional knowledge silos. The same way Google liberated and popularized GIS with Maps and Earth, the same revolution is happening right now in CAD and will continue at an accelerated pace.

We are entering a new era where Virtual Reality will be increasingly present in our daily lives. Offering multi-sensorial 3D experiences and a versatile VR deployment solution, Virtools a Dassault Systemes Company is a key player in the Interactive 3D market.

 
Dedicated 3D for All Platforms
 

Virtools is a complete development & deployment platform with an innovative approach to interactive 3D application creation. These solutions deliver not only the high-quality graphics found in cutting-edge 3D games, but also provide the advanced behavioral interactivity that can be found in bestsellers.

Virtools allows users to imagine, share and experience highly interactive 3D content. This new paradigm represents a highly intuitive means of capturing the 3D experience and easily mapping product behavior, along with contextual environment scenarios. It enables easy development of virtual experiences such as driving, shopping, product use, maintenance and marketing tests.
 
Cutting-Edge Technology at Your Fingertips
 

Virtools’ unique and proven development system considers 3D objects as individual components, independent of the data associated with them. The resulting architecture is extremely flexible, allowing developers to attribute modular behaviors to objects and manage them easily and efficiently. Developers drag and drop behaviors in an intuitive graphical user interface to create complex applications with the high-quality graphics and interactivity.

A single graphical User Interface opens the door to specific advanced add-on modules such as sophisticated Physics, Artificial Intelligence, and advanced Multi-user capacities, not to mention integration and use of 3rd party technologies. Virtools integrates a powerful render engine that lets developers make the most of stunning visual effects and advanced rendering techniques (Shaders 3.0, HLSL and CgFX, DX 9.c and OpenGL 2.0).
