3D Content Integration

As an Imagine 4D client, an important step will be converting your 3D content to be displayed inside our immersive environment, Station IX™ (e.g. your CAD files, 3D models, Building Information Modeling (BIM) content, etc.). To help our customers with integrating their content, we have developed software development kits (SDKs) with plug-and-play support.

If you don’t already have 3D content, our team of strategic content partners can help create the 3D world for you and help you access your organization’s full potential.

Either way, we’re with you every step of the way. You’ll be sure to be mesmerized when you see your 3D assets inside Station IX™.
