Shout3D™ 2.0 - Demo Tour


360 degree panoramic environments

Drag with the mouse in this ExamineApplet to see the big picture. Shout3D 2.0 supports cubic environments maps, which are easily created in 3D packages such as 3D Studio MAX. These maps can be used within Shout3D for both panoramic backgrounds and reflective surfaces. You can use these features separately, or combine them as in this example to produce an object that reflects its fully immersive environment.

Cubic environment maps can be used to render reflections on the surfaces of objects to produce realistic chrome, but also combined with other material effects for more subtle reflective surfaces. Shout3D is bringing the features of high-end, pre-rendered 3D graphics to the emerging world of realtime 3D on the Web. Attractive, convincing visualization of real-world products trumpets a new era in e-commerce.
