Essential Vision
An innovative application dedicated for Microsoft HoloLens headset. It allows to create visualization of time series 3D models and their simulation data.
Enhance your
experience
Innovative solution for visualization of time series 3D models and their simulation data.
ABOUT
More than just mixed
reality
Shared experience
View the same model at the same time. As a teacher you can choose models and display their parameters, all the while your students experience them in VR.
AR/VR Support
Try Essential Vision on various devices, including Microsoft HoloLens and Windows Mixed Reality. Participate in the same shared experience session.
Controllers
A sentence or two describing this item. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet.
Flexible pipeline
Use flexible pipeline for importing models of various formats. Formats include STL, VTK, and can be extended to others.
HOW IT WORKS
Data preparation process
Data Conversion service allows to convert time series of VTK files into functional Essential Vision Asset Bundle package which then can be loaded and visualized with Essential Vision application on Hololens 2 headset.
FEATURES
Shared experience
Essential Vision users can see the same model at the same time.FEATURES
Enhance your
experience
Innovative solution for visualization of time series 3D models and their simulation data.
FEATURES
Animations using blend shapes
With configurable speed, pausing, scale, or clipping planes, allowing to see the inside of the model.
FEATURES
Support of models with multiple layers
Each layer can be displayed as a surface (opaque or transparent).
FEATURES
Support of models with simulation data
Simulation data (directed markers) can be visualized alongside the 3D model.

TECHNOLOGY
What technology we use
Unity is a cross platform real-time engine which gives users the ability to create three-dimensional and two-dimensional simulations or interactive experiences for many platforms.
Unity engine offers a primary scripting API in C#. All scripts have been designed in this language.
