3D Interaction Technologies Interactive 3D Airport Visualisations and Models

3D Interaction Technologies (3D:it) creates interactive, high-performance visualisations for terminal planning, logistics and landside infrastructure applications.

These include real-time 3D walkthrough models of complete airports that run on a laptop, or plug-in-free 3D web explorers of complex equipment and designs.

3D real-time presentations and models of facilities

3D:it specialises in producing virtual 3D presentations and models of products, facilities and technologies, which can be rotated, zoomed, entered, configured, used and taken apart in real-time. As no rendering is required upfront, the user is absolutely free how to explore the model.

By combining 3D computer graphics with gaming technology, 3D:it creates photorealistic, real-time applications that can be implemented offline on a PC, online plug-in free in web browsers, and mobile devices and tablets.

Photorealistic, interactive 3D representations of logistics and machinery

3D:it’s solutions provide an interactive yet better real-world experience when compared with images or conventional video.

For the first time, it is possible to create complete, photorealistic interactive 3D models of entire terminals, buildings or facilities containing all relevant equipment, working spaces and media supply tubes.

The company efficiently combines data from various planning programmes into a single walkthrough environment, which creates a high-quality 3D model of a building, logistics or equipment project can be explored stutter-free on regular PCs and laptops.

Virtual auditing applications for airport projects

3D:it’s customised 3D visualisations help to view and evaluate planned terminals in a virtual audit or during the operational readiness and airport transfer (ORAT) process (for example, regarding safety and hygiene concepts, baggage handling, airport interior), even before they are actually built or opened.

Concerns of potential customers can be efficiently identified and eliminated early in the design stage by vividly showing relevant details and ideas, reducing time and errors.

The virtual 3D:it model can be directly used or optimised for maintenance planning and training purposes. After the terminal has opened, the model can be used as an integrated component of interactive 3D passenger information systems, passenger flow monitoring tools and other applications.

An appealing and intuitive 3D walkthrough is an attractive possibility to involve investors and executives in technical content when taking high-investment decisions.

3D configurators for interior designs or machines

3D:it’s intuitive 3D configurators provide a quick and clear overview of the variety of a product’s variations. They help to configure the client’s preferred version of their product, as well as expedite and automate sales processes when connected to an enterprise resource planning (ERP) or customer relationship management system.

Configurators are designed for the composition of interior designs in the transportation industry or for the configuration of machines or whole facilities such as modular construction systems.

Versatile applications for customer attraction

High-end 3D visualisations convey a lifelike impression of how a product or facility is assembled and how it works. One 3D presentation explains products or technology better than several tables and charts.

These visualisations can readily be integrated on websites, tradeshow booths and in point-of-sale communications. As they are attractive to customers and convey an innovative company image, while helping to comprehensibly explain technical details or advantages of hi-tech products, 3D:it’s visualisations speed-up customer dialogue and the quotation process.

3D visualisations for mobile maintenance operations

3D visualisations are an ideal part of innovative and comprehensible instruction manuals, as they explain the commissioning and installation of certain products or illustrate maintenance work. These result in fewer mistakes and reduced training times.
