The app also allows you to import 3D models you already have available, since it supports FBX, DAE, OBJ, and STL file types among others. It features automatic shader conversion to stereo rendering and a great variety of 3D holographic editing tools such as box select, 3-axis translation, rotation, etc. “Also included is built-in cloud integration for easy access to user documents for both import and export purposes. For engineering and to-scale applications, real-world unit measurements in meters are available for holographic 3D models within the app” says Farrell in the press release.
A first for mixed reality
The app comes with a price of $100 ($99.99 to be exact) in the Windows Store and has been brought to the mixed reality space for the first time. This software is indeed a first for HoloLens and mixed reality as a whole. The developer has revealed that “It took nearly everything I had to develop this app completely by myself. There were times when I considered throwing in the towel, but now that it is polished, finished, and ready for the world, I’m really glad I stuck it out.” Here is a list of Verto Studio VR’s features:
“Create 3D scenes from scratch without the need for external computers or software. Truly 3D holographic editing tools such as box select, 3-axis translation, rotation, etc. Import & place, move, scale and rotate existing Verto Studio 3D scenes & content in a mixed-reality environment. Cloud Import/Export Support Real-world unit measurements in meters. Automatic shader conversion to stereo rendering, even for user-custom Verto Studio shaders. Dynamic polycount reduction capability for Hologram rendering optimization. Texture assigment (diffuse & bump maps) Environment mapping support via cube-maps. Texture coordinate editing UI-hiding “Presentation Mode” to allow display of holograms without any distractions. Many more features that are part of the Verto Studio 3D software suite.”
