The Saturday Shiners #06: How to Get a 3D Model- Part II

 

Hey 👋 - Swapratim here.

 

Happy Saturday to 333 motivated XR enthusiasts.

 

Here's another short tip on how to grow online AR business.

 

Today's issue takes about 3 minutes to read. 

 

Enjoy 👇

 

 

Today I'll share the Part-II of how to get your 3D models for AR experience.

 

Often AR campaigns needs more professional 3D models. Even reality captured 3D models (e.g. LIDAR scanned 3D) need further edit. For WebAR, 3D file size is also an important aspect (lightweight is better) since it needs to be loaded in browsers.

 

You can easily earn $10k or more on a monthly basis by providing end to end WebAR experience to your customers. But you need to know what tools to use (in case you hire a 3D artist) to deliver the best quality AR campaigns.

 

Today's newsletter is about the list of most effective 3D building software.

 

 

 

# What Benefit they bring:

 

Building 3D models often come with many challenges. In most cases, it is required to use animation within a 3D experience to engage users and spark their interest.

 

Capturing real life objects as 3D model is often cheaper but less likely to have a good end result or animated version. Sometimes you need to use multiple 3D objects in the same frame or customize it for necessary customer reqyurements. For those reasons, 3D software are often the best choice to use.

 

 

 

# 7 best Paid 3D modelling Software:

 

1. Maya - Industry-standard 3D modelling software

2. ZBrush - Market-leading sculpting software

Result:

 

Its the correct tool that can make or break a business. If you can deliver high quality professional looking 3D modelling experience as part of your AR service provision to your customers, you can easily establish your own brand quickly.

 

Augmented Reality is still a novelty to most of the people. With WebAR based services, you can quickly create your own business model to target the B2B channel. Creative advertising and marketing have a big market to use AR campaigns.

 

Publish more frequent marketing campaigns to draw the attention of your audience. Use professional 3D models and use them in the AR campaigns. Reduce campaign build time and cost - get more time for creative experimentation and increase ROI.

 

Scale user engagement and grow conversion rate using Web Augmented Reality.
