3D Viewing

Running your own DAM/CMS? Building a custom enterprise solution? No matter what use case, we got you covered with our out-of-the-box 3D viewing solutions.

All common 3D & CAD formats, and more

Just like image or video management systems, all enterprise-grade 3D viewers have a frontend and a backend. The frontend is what shows the actual 3D model (typically using Web-optimized formats like glTF). The backend is what makes it possible to load all kinds of models into the 3D viewer.

With RapidPipeline, we offer best-in-class viewer backend technology that lets you load more than 60 different 3D and CAD formats. This means your clients will be able to bring common visualization formats (FBX, OBJ, USD, glTF, ...), CAD formats (CATIA, Solidworks, STEP, JT, ...), 3D scan data (OBJ, PLY, ...), and even 3dsMax/V-Ray files from CGI scenes. The possibilities are almost endless.

Just the right viewer for your use case

RapidPipeline comes with its own very capable viewer frontend. Features include:

Customization of lighting, shadow, post-processing
AR / VR viewing
Placement of your, or your clients', custom logos
Distance measurement tool
Render modes inspector (wireframe, occlusion, metalness, ...)
Mobile-ready embed option (via <iframe>)
Full customization of all controls / features exposed

In addition, RapidPipeline's viewer backend is compatible with all major viewer frontends, such as <model-viewer>, BabylonJS, ThreeJS (watch the talks by Google and Microsoft at 3D Pipeline Days 2024 to learn more about some). Whatever use case you have - our powerful and interoperable architecture will have you covered at any time throughout your 3D journey.

Your own server, or hosted on our CDN - the choice is yours

Every business is different. Therefore, our viewer backend is compatible with all common IT architectures - from AWS to Azure, from Docker to bare metal on any common OS. Get in touch with our solutions team today to discuss the optimal deployment that best serves your business needs.
