3D & CAD

Prepare 3D and CAD data for reliable real-time XR.

Engineering models are built for precision, not real-time performance. We reduce, restructure and enrich CAD and 3D assets so they work efficiently in AR, VR and mixed reality without losing the details that matter to the use case.

Starting points

When this approach makes sense

  • CAD models contain too much hidden or unnecessary geometry
  • Object hierarchies are unsuitable for interaction
  • Materials do not transfer cleanly to real-time engines
  • Variants and metadata need to remain maintainable

Deliverables

What we build

  • Geometry reduction and cleanup
  • Hierarchy and naming strategy
  • Material and texture optimization
  • Export pipeline and asset validation

Use cases

Concrete applications instead of XR for its own sake.

The right implementation depends on audience, environment, data, hardware and the integrations required.

Decision criteria

The key questions before starting the project.

Clear technical and operational assumptions make the difference between a compelling prototype and a production-ready solution.

  • Which technical details must remain visible?
  • Which parts need to be selectable or animated?
  • How often will source data change?
  • Which target devices define the performance budget?

Quality & operations

What makes an XR solution reliable in production.

Performance, usability and maintainability are evaluated together instead of being postponed until rollout.

  • Test on representative target hardware and in realistic environments
  • Document technical limits, dependencies and fallback paths
  • Optimize 3D content for performance and maintainability
  • Plan deployment, updates and operational ownership from the start

Frequently asked questions

Questions about 3D & CAD Data Optimization.

Answers to common questions before an XR project.

Can STEP or native CAD files be used?

Often yes, but usually not directly in the final application. They are imported, structured and optimized for real-time use.

Will optimization remove important engineering detail?

Not if the process is use-case driven. We define which details matter for the intended workflow and remove only what does not add value.

Can the pipeline be automated?

Parts of it often can. The level of automation depends on source consistency, model structure, naming and the required quality level.
