description 🔗
With Shapespark you can create interactive, fully immersive web-based visualisations and experiences along with 3D video meetings from your SketchUp models that can be easily shared via links and open directly in desktop or mobile web browsers.
Main features:
- Full movement freedom. Allow your clients to enter a space and freely walk around to examine every corner and detail. Make them feel as if they were there. Unlike 360 panoramas, the presentation is not limited to a few selected viewpoints and there is no distortion in the corners of the screen.
- 3D Meetings. With a couple of clicks turn any SketchUp model into a meeting space where people walk & talk in 3D. Participants can use interactive features like screen sharing in the 3D world! Distribute just as easily as a regular Shapespark walkthrough.
- Integrated light-map baking engine with automatic UV unwrapping. Lightmaps allow for realistic lighting without a need for a powerful computer during presentation, so the result can be viewed even on mobile devices or laptops with integrated GPUs. To speed-up the baking process you can use CUDA enabled graphics card or multiple CPUs.
- No programing knowledge necessary. Unlike game engines, Shapespark is dedicated for designers and 3D artists, so does not require any programing knowledge to create real-time visualizations. -Virtual Reality support. Shapespark uses WebXR, so the visualizations can be viewed not only on flat screens, but also in VR with desktop (Oculus, HTC Vive, Microsoft Mixed Reality) or standalone headsets (Oculus Quest, Google Cardboard). -Interactive features. You can place material pickers in your model, to allow the user to change materials. You can also place clickable elements in the model to show additional information to the user. You can use video textures and add music to the presentation.
- The visualization can be branded with your own logo or URL address.
