3D Animation & Infographics

Need to communicate a complex idea or event? A 3D animation can be an ideal solution. A 3D space is constructed with a precision level of detail and a video is created within that space to depict a concept with extreme accuracy. It can range from a technical visualization or something more photo-realistic.

A series of infographics could also be useful in illustrating information. Show sizes, dimensions, and any relevant data in detail with images. A combination of animation and graphics is an ideal solution for getting your point across.

Interactive & Virtual Reality

An interactive is an animation with more options. Built in a game engine, this solution offers a wide range of capabilities. Instead of watching an animated video, a viewer can control how they move around a 3D space, allow events to progress at any speed, adjust circumstances, or any other option imaginable.

Virtual Reality (VR) is an additional option that transports the viewer into the 3D space. It’s an interactive with another dimension. View and interact with a digital world as if you were actually there.

UAV Imaging

An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), or drone, is ideal for accurately mapping and reconstructing large areas or objects. Used with photogrammetry software, drone footage can be used to create a 3D model of what it captures.

A UAV can also capture video and images from interesting perspectives for further animation or just for documenting conditions. Due to federal and state regulations, some restrictions on use may apply.

3D Precision Modeling

Using a series of 3D softwares, a high resolution camera, and a considerable amount of processing power, almost any object can be taken from the real world into the virtual world. The process involves taking a large number of images and utilizing photogrammetry software to reform it in 3D space.

Once an object has been digitized, it can be used in a 3D animation or interactive. A digital object can be studied in great detail without risking harm to the original object due to excessive handling. A 3D model can also be used with a 3D printer or CNC machine for prototyping and fabrication.

Photo- & Videogrammetry

Photogrammetry is a method of using photos to define points accurately within a 3D space. It can be used to determine measurements, defining the camera’s position, and building 3D sites and objects. Videogrammetry is the same process, but works with video.

Both photo- and videogrammetry look to match key features among either a series of images (photogrammetry), or a series of video frames (videogrammetry). For creating 3D sites and objects, a large number of key features are matched to form a collection of dense points.
