3D Space
A vSTAGE project is made up of a virtual 3D Space which is covered with a 360 degree background and a ground plane. These two components make up a Scene. The 3D Space can be filled with additional elements such as 3D Data or media elements.
3D Data includes vHelpers, and your uploaded CAD-Data.
Media elements (videos, images, web browser and text) are handled as 3D elements inside of vSTAGE and can be manipulated as such; they can be transposed, scaled / resized and rotated.
Real-Time Visualization
Real-time means that any changes made to the lighting or to any of the elements placed within the Scene are visualized virtually immediately. Due to the Real-time rendering capabilities of vSTAGE combined with its high-end visual output, the client has a set minimum hardware requirement which can be found here.
Camera
Every project inside vSTAGE is visualized with the same camera used to navigate around a scene within the editor. The camera can orbit and zoom around any element placed within a scene by setting said element as the target focus by double clicking or clicking on an object and pressing F on the keyboard.
Interaction
On computers the elements can be interacted with via mouse and keyboard shortcuts. On touch-screen devices simulate mouse behaviour via touch controls. Lastly, vSTAGE clients used on the HoloLens work with the native gesture controls. And VR uses VR controllers to point and click.
Project Content
A Project can be a 3D product presentation for marketing, a training for workers, an instruction manual for the machine, a configurator for sales, or even a monitoring environment for a production line. vSTAGE can be used to create VR Trainings, as well as Trainings that can be viewed and played on websites. It can even function as a software for product renderings and videos.
