Experimental: Screen Space Ambient Occlusion
Overview
At Threedy, we pride ourselves on involving you as our customer as closely and early as possible in the development of instant3Dhub. As part of this initiative, we want to share one of our newest features - we have been working on a Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO) post effect and are looking forward to your feedback.
Starting today, we are also able to provide you with an experimental release for SSAO – please reach out to your Threedy contact with any questions.
Benefits
SSAO is a shading method which adds a photorealistic effect to the global scene and therefor any model by taking into consideration light attenuation due to occlusion.
The result is a softly-shadowed appearance offering a more realistic perception of the model's shape.
This video gives a first glimpse over this feature.
Experimental Release
Experimental feature releases are focused on showcasing a new capability of instant3Dhub and aim to gather feedback and insights early on to allow customers and partners to influence the future product accordingly.
Although we have invested significant time and resources, experimental features are not yet part ofthe official package and might never be.
Experimental features may be changed by Threedy at any time for any reason and without notice and are not ready for productive use.
