Hi,
we are planning to make mechanics for architecture and product visualisations. To create what is really demanded/requested, we would like to get input from professionals what they could need/require for their different use-cases.
Here are some groups of features we have as basis to start with, please add youre requests/wishes in the postings below or contact me via PM directly.
- Viewing options (some examples shown here)
- different pre-setable locations and view-angles for a camera the viewer can switch thru
- pre-set camera-movements around or thru the models
- walk-mode for the viewer to control human-scale figure / eye-height in first-person or third person modes
- fly mode: viewer can control camera in all directions + angles
- focusing on optional hot-spots during camera movement
…
- Variations of the model and the environment in realtime
- exchangeable materials/surfaces from a pre-defined set or custom texture
- exchangeable geometry, e.g. different variations for furniture or facades in a ArchVis, or different designs/parts for a product visualisation
- adjustable day/nighttime with according sun-position
- different lightning scenarios, e.g. neon, blue sky sunlit, sunsets…and weather conditions, e.g. rain, snow, …
- parametrical adjustments in realtime, e.g.:
input height of stairs and get adjusted staircase
number of windows on a wall/facade
…
- Interactivity
- Doors/gates: open, close
- windows: open partially/full /close
- curtains and shades: different materials and open/closed
- lights: off, on, setable light-colour and intensity
…
- Animations
- vehices, car traffic
- pedestrians
- flying: birds, planes, clouds…
- falling leaves
…
- Effects optical and audio
- Snow
- Fire, sparks, smoke, heated/distorted air
- Water: swimming pools interactive, Waterfalls, river
- dust, fog
- post-processing variants
- video-materials for e.g. TV-screen, advertisement…
…
Audio:
ambient/background music
localised for e.g. traffic, fire-sparkling, doors opening/closing, wind, water…
…
- target platforms, input-output devices
- desktop PC keyboard, mouse, game-controllers
- VR, which systems?:
- Mobile?
- Streaming (cloud deployment) to browser or mobile?
