3RD Dimension Technologies provides professional object modeling services based upon their photo texturing technique. That technique enables shapes to be built primarily through the use of multiple photographs of an object, such as a car. The photographs themselves are then used to texture the shape and give it a realistic appearance.

3RD Dimension Technologies has used their photo texturing technique to develop a large collection of pre-modeleted objects, any of which you can purchase and use in your worlds. The VRML Automobiles collection sampler includes several sample photo textured cars from 3RD Dimension Technologies's collection.

For more information about 3RD Dimension Technologies products, see their Web site. A VRML Showroom of 3RD Dimension Technologies models is available at: http://www.3dexpress.com/vrmlobj.html. 3RD Dimension Technologies also provides several object library CD-ROM products, described at: http://www.3dexpress.com/CD-ROM.html.

3RD Dimension Technologies uses their photo texturing technique to create avatar models of individuals for use in multi-user VRML environments. The avatar, typically consisting of a head, is built primarily using photographs of an individual. The VRML Avatars collection sampler includes several sample photo textured avatars from 3RD Dimension Technologies's collection.

Puppet is a low-end multi-user 3D chat server available from 3RD Dimension Technologies. Puppet supports user selection of avatar shapes, such as those included in the sampler here. 3RD Dimension Technologies also provides avatar building services so that you can have a custom avatar that looks like you (or otherwise).

Additional information about Puppet, and 3RD Dimension Technologies worlds and chat rooms, is available at http://www.3dexpress.com/3dchat.html.

3RD Dimension Technologies's photo texturing technique can be used to model a wide variety of shapes. The VRML Products collection sampler includes several sample photo textured products from 3RD Dimension Technologies's collection.
