These days, 3D models and renderings are used in a wide variety of fields, including the medical industry for detailed models of organs or bone. The movie industry for characters and objects for animated and real-life motion pictures. The video game industry employs 3D as assets for computer and video games. The science sector uses 3D for highly detailed models of chemical compounds.
Where we utilise 3D is in the architectural and engineering industries to demonstrate proposed buildings and landscapes with fly-by and walkthrough renderings. Visual prototyping of new designs, devices or objects, as well as a host of other uses. 3D models can also be printed as physical objects to view aesthetics or proof of concept prior to building or production.
