Buzz 3D real-time Virtual Reality solutions encompass a number of features that are both unique and essential in order to achieve the highest level of visual quality, 3D sound and user interaction.  These are briefly detailed below with further links on some features, and more information can be provided on request at sales@buzz3d.com.

Display - Offers photorealistic visual quality , automatically adjusts to the screen resolution of the display device.  The 3D experience can adapt to any resolution supported by the graphics card ...... click here to read on

Scalability - Buzz 3D applications run locally on the host hardware and, in order to ensure the optimum user experience based on the available hardware ...... click here to read on

Scripts - To avoid the need to recompile the 3D system each time a new feature is added or amended, interaction between the user and the 3D engine is governed by easily updatable ‘scripts’ ...... click here to read on

3D Audio - Any audio source within the 3D environment is capable of rendering its audio either as a 2D soundfield unaffected by the end user’s position and orientation within the 3D world ...... click here to read on

Integrated Multimedia - The 3D engine is capable of presenting a diverse range of multimedia content seamlessly within the 3D environment ...... click here to read on

CD / DVD Playback - This is also supported and would be required if the user was to be allowed to introduce music of their choice, so they can more readily connect with the overall experience. ...... click here to read on

Video Conferencing - Voice & Video Over IP from within the 3D environment, either as a 2D inset within the 3D viewport, or on a dedicated 3D texture such as a screen, can be supported. ...... click here to read on

Inclusion of Internal Database and compatibility with External Applications - A light, powerful, MySQL local database engine is included as a self-contained entity (ie. does not require separate installation) within Buzz 3D ...... click here to read on

Resumable-streamed Multimedia - With external media broadcast from a streaming server (eg. Video), the user does not only benefit from an immediate response, but the content is also cached within the local database ...... click here to read on

Server-based control - Another important aspect of the system, whether contained within Buzz logic scripts, or abstracted to a separate Knowledge Base Engineering (KBE) system, is the ability to permit remote-control of events within the Virtual World ...... click here to read on

Real-Time Physics - We have made provision for support of a full-blown physics engine (Havok or suchlike) ...... click here to read on

Server-based Rendering Options for Remote Low-Capability Mobile Devices (eg. Smartphones) - The Buzz 3D engine is capable of being placed on one or more Servers, and generating 3D remotely as part of a comprehensive solution for mobile devices ...... click here to read on

Update and Version-Checking - All elements of the 3D world, from the scripts, the 3D engine, to individual aspects of the 3D models or accompanying multimedia are version-managed in-line within the software ...... click here to read on

Input Device Compatibility - The engine is capable of adapting to suit a wide range of I/O devices, and can be easily expanded via script to support future devices ...... click here to read on

License-Control and eCommerce Transactions - Where required Licensing and eCommerce Transactions can be supported within the system, permitting the end user’s installation to be version-checked against a master database ...... click here to read on

3D Model Integration - We can provide conversion software so that 3D models from an external CAD System can be converted for display within a Buzz 3D virtual environment. ...... click here to read on

Multi-Lingual - User Interfaces and multimedia text/audio can support any language(s) chosen by our client, and expanded to accommodate other languages in accordance with market demands.  ...... click here to read on

New Lighting Engine - (The link gives) an overview of the visual quality that our new lighting engine will make possible by the end of Jan-2008, albeit using far more detailed 3D models ...... click here to read on

Output 3D to Video - The Buzz 3D real-time 3D engine, in addition to generating a freely navigable 3D experience, is also capable of playing pre-defined animations and – most importantly – rendering them to disk as video files, in addition to rendering to the screen. ...... click here to read on
