October 15, 2013 - Tech Soft 3D announces HOOPS Visualize for Mobile, to help software developers create robust, high-performance mobile applications. Based on the same core graphics engine in HOOPS Visualize for the desktop, HOOPS Visualize for Mobile enables developers to easily build dynamic graphics and intuitive touch interfaces into their mobile applications. Now, developers can create high performance, feature-rich applications across mobile platforms with a single 3D foundation. Previously, creating engaging engineering mobile applications called on software developers to tackle all visualization coding efforts themselves.
HOOPS Visualize for Mobile simplifies and accelerates this extremely time-consuming and challenging process, launching them several steps ahead so they can quickly create rich mobile applications. Key features in this SDK include:
- Untethered Desktop Visualization Tools: HOOPS Visualize for Mobile includes advanced features that used to be available only for desktop software.
- Rich, Flexible Scene Graph: With the core engine from proven HOOPS Visualize desktop technology, developers can create mobile applications that handle 3D, 2D, point cloud, text and image data in their scene with ease.
- High-Performance Algorithms: Optimized to handle large models, HOOPS Visualize for Mobile’s graphics technology ensures that graphics performance on mobile devices is fast and smooth, especially alongside an optimized OpenGL ES driver.
- Mobile UI Support: Includes intuitive, portable support for both iOS Cocoa Touch and Android SDK-Java touch interfaces.
- Leverage Latest Multi-core Devices: Provides a multi-threaded, fully thread-safe API that helps ensure scalable performance as hardware continues to evolve.
Features such as GPU shader effects, fast transparency, hidden-line rendering, sophisticated sectioning and cutting planes, and high-quality font rendering are now easy for developers to deliver through this high-level API.
