Texture Tracking

Texture Tracking is now available in LinceoVR camera matching mode! User can choose their own generic picture as the target to be tracked in their live video an/or photos.

LinceoVR Viewer Available!

The viewer supports both Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality mode, while letting you keep your 3D model data safe and read-only thanks to a new specific exporting format of LinceoVR.

3D Data Import

LinceoVR can directly import standard 3D data. Supported formats are 3DM, IGES, STEP, STL, DXF, OBJ, 3DS, WRLM.

LinceoVR now supports direct import of the popular Autodesk FBX format for platform-independent 3D data interchange! Also Rhinoceros 3DM file importing has been greatly fixed and improved.

The easiest exporting process from Rhino®

LinceoVR 3.0 has a direct dedicated compatibility with Rhino®. Thanks to the Rhino2LVR plugin Rhino users can export to a LinceoVR model file (LVR) and may also be able to load the mesh directly with a mouse click into LinceoVR 3.0.

Realtime Animations

LinceoVR allows to import animated 3D models from any DCC software to make your presentation became alive. Realtime animations are available both in virtual reality and camera matching mode, and can be controlled through the dedicated panel with play, stop and pause commands. LinceoVR also offers to add animation effects like translations, spins and bounces to each single element of the model. Added animation effects can be applied and combined to imported animation in order to get the scene more realistic.

3D Surround Audio

LinceoVR extends your sensitive perceptions during your presentation offering an efficient rendering of three dimensional positional audio. Moving the camera in your scene, LinceoVR will coherently play the audio embedded in 3D data in the virtual 3D environment, simulating distance and direction of the sources.

HDRI and OpenEXR illumination

The visualization of 3D data inside 360° degrees photographic environments offers the possibility to evaluate the virtual model in a real contests with the added value of a more realistic simulation. Thanks to HDRI and OpenEXR illumination, the virtual environment can be used as a source of global illumination for the model.

HDRI images offer information relative to the quantity of light coming from each direction. By using this feature it is possible to use appropriate algorithms to regulate the exposure of the virtual camera. LinceoVR includes a set of standard HDRI environments and allows to import personal ones converting them in the proper 360° format automatically.

Ambient Occlusion

A new efficient Ambient Occlusion algorithm offers an extremely realistic rendering of the shadows, conferring impressive high quality illumination to every single element of the model.

Real Time Soft Shadows in Camera Matching mode

LinceoVR supports real time soft shadows in camera matching mode, allowing to visualize realistic shadows of the virtual model inside the real environment of the live video background.

3D data Optimization

During the import process, 3D data are optimized in order to warrant the best performances for the realtime visualization. LinceoVR automatically provides tassellation of the model and a primary optimization of the  material assignment. Once the model has been opened elements, or group of them, can be further optimized sharing vertex and merging geometries and materials.

Normals management

Normals can be managed in order to properly visualize the 3D model, both swapping them or entire geometry faces and calculating a crease angle in order to get continue the surfaces.

Catalogues and Geometry and Material Variants Management

Useful advantages in using virtual prototypes for presenting ideas and design goods is the possibility to quickly switch form a variant to another. Designers can propose alternatives for the same projects, marketing and sales people can show different configurations for the same product. LinceoVR includes a new innovative approach to variants management.

Multiple 3D data and scenes can be handled and visualized all in the same session, allowing to edit and work on different 3D models at the same time. Each 3D model can be treated separately, customizing its own geometry and material variants, background and lighting environment.

Batch rendering

An automatic render generator to produce, in batch modality, a complete pictures set of selected permutations of variants in your scenes. This function can be used, for example, to easily and quickly generate all the images needed for all the possible QTVRs (or similar 360° spin viewer) when you have many variants of the same model. Thanks to the dedicated panel, you can decide and manage which geometry and material variants must be included, range of degrees needed and number of steps in the range. An advanced setting panel allows to create and add logical rules in order to define which permutations must be considered valid.

Material libraries

The higher quality of the materials is available the more realistic rendering is visualized. LinceoVR offers the management and customization of high quality standard and dedicated material libraries. Materials can be edited and enriched with textures. Specific libraries for specific needs of the customer can be created.

Backgrounds

3D data can be visualized with different kinds of background, meeting different possible needs of the users. Depending on the result desired, it’s possible to visualize the model inside 360° environments, photographic pictures, neutral and colored backgrounds with linear or gradient fills.

Views and Camera Paths

Presentations can be prepared in advance for showing the best of the design of the 3D model. Viewpoints can be saved in a proper list and load back at the need with a simple click. In the same way, users can mark sequential views in order to interpolate a path that can be played and stopped in realtime. Views and camera paths prepared in advance, as well geometry and material variants, bring no technician people closer to Virtual Reality, allowing them to easily visualize and show to customers, suppliers and partners virtual projects.

High Resolution images and video output

3D scenes can be used in order to produce high quality communication material, both for internal design reviews purposes and marketing and sales activities. LinceoVR allows users to export and save at unlimited resolution images for photographic print and videos in AVI and MPEG format.

Video Backgrounds for real time camera matching

LinceoVR 3.0 allows instantaneous camera matching for immediate contextualization of 3D models in the real world. A wide series of camera options is available, allowing users to plug standard inputs (USB, FireWire, SDI, HDMI) for live video background.

AVI and MPEG videos may be used as pre-recorded background as well. LinceoVR 3.0 also allows direct high definition picture taking, plugging compatible photo cameras (Canon PowerShot series, Canon EOS 400D) to the PC, for real time picture camera matching.

Real Time de-interlacing Filter for camera Input

A real time de-interlacing filter for live video background to grants high image quality and stable tracking in camera matching mode.

Camera calibration Wizard

LinceoVR 3.0 offers an advanced procedure for fine camera calibration. The Wizard procedure allows to correct optical distortions of the camera used.

Camera matching panels

A user friendly interface with dedicated panels offers complete camera matching setting options.

Custom Marker Creation Wizard

Quick and easy wizard procedure to create your own marker for tracking in camera matching mode.

Stereoscopy

LinceoVR 3.0 supports the stereoscopic visualization. Virtual Rooms proper equipped can run the software in stereo mode in order to evaluate 3D data perceiving depths.

Customizable Shortcuts

A common added value for a software tool is to let users to personalize calls to commands depending on his or her utility. LinceoVR allows to associate customized shortcuts to most of its functions becoming even easier and friendlier to be used.

Advanced Input Devices

Presentation can be powered by advanced input devices in order to control the visualization. LinceoVR is compatible with 3D Connextion Space Mouse and Nexio Multitouch systems.
