THE BENEFITS OF 3D

3D visualisation is a powerful business and training tool – it can communicate complex subjects quickly, reduce costs, make collaboration more efficient, reduce error rates and persuade and engage. 3D visualisation is not a digital toy, but the strengths that make it as compelling – interactivity, ease of use, low cost – are also strengths for a business tool.

The world-leading technologies that Nextspace uses to make 3D visualisation:

• Accessible.  Interactivity with 3D models which can be viewed and interacted with via websites, via email, in PDFs, in Word documents, kiosks and on mobile phones.  Expensive high-end computers aren’t necessary.  
• Easy to use.  Visuals are intuitively easy to understand. Modern visually-literate audiences can view and manipulate images far more quickly than cross-referencing 2D diagrams.
• Collaborative.  3D demonstrations can spark and speed group discussion faster than conceptual descriptions. Digital models can be shared with people around the world even when speaking different languages with comments precisely linked to specific parts of the model.
• Interactive.  Models can be taken apart, components explored, processes animated, cross-sections viewed and step-by-step instructions included. Users can rehearse procedures without the real thing, add information, update objects to reflect the latest designs or product lines.
• Engaging.  People relate better to visuals that mimic the real world. 3D visuals hold attention and are easier to comprehend than text or flat diagrams. 
• Accurate.  3D does not have to be an approximation or simulation. Models and data can be based on actual production plans, engineering CAD data or scans. Industrial models and data can be compressed without loss of visual quality.
• Manageable.  Time and cost saving tools can manage large volumes of digital assets, update, edit and output them for a range of formats including plans, manuals or realistic promotional images.
• Integrated with business data.  Make your visuals intelligent by linking them to relevant data, such as instructions, product information, ERP systems and update that data automatically. 3D can become a compelling front-end to any software application.
• Widely applicable.  In our showcase you’ll see examples of 3D used in manufacturing, tourism, teaching, sales, construction, art and more.
