3D Animator
Introduction
3D Animator is a post-simulation add-in for ProModel, MedModel and ServiceModel. Using a 3D animation script generated by your ProModel product, you can now view any simulation in a fully-configurable, 3-Dimensional layout.
Advantages
- All objects, including the layout, are now rendered three-dimensionally, allowing the animation to closely reflect the reality that your model is simulating.
- Animations can be choreographed to automatically pan, zoom, change animation speed, and track objects as they move during animation.
- Objects automatically orient themselves on paths and conveyors to face the direction of travel.
- Since 3D Animator runs post-simulation, the animation is no longer tied to the running
simulation. The animation can be sent to others and viewed without requiring them to run the simulation.
Making the leap from 2D to 3D is an easy three-step process:
Step 1: Simply run your simulation with the new "Generate Animation Script" option selected in the latest version of ProModel, MedModel, or ServiceModel. A complete 3D animation of the simulation will be automatically created.
Step 2: Touch up the 3D layout in 3D Animator.
Step 3: Press play and watch the animation run exactly as the simulation, only in full 3D. During animation you can freely move the camera about the layout, or script custom camera events.
