OptiTex USA, Inc. announces the completion of the long awaited cloth simulation software add-on built using OptiTex hi-end cloth draping engine.
Following years of product development and testing conducted by OptiTex team of software engineers OptiTex announces the launching of its first version of the most accurate 3D cloth simulation software – the fabric motion simulator that is built into OptiTex 3D Runway product. This new add-on takes OptiTex 3D technology to the next level, allowing Runway users to incorporate complex processes such as Fabric collision, intersections and motion capabilities into one file that can later on be presented or sent out to non OptiTex users.
Adding motion to the model is a breeze; A user can run the preinstalled BVH files (motion capture files) or import such files from other 3rd party application, apply the motion they need to the user own model and get real life results which are no longer just static images and objects but the ability to see visualize the patterns in real life situations thus increasing speed to market. “This new and highly accurate Fabric Motion Simulator tomorrow’s technology extends OptiTex capabilities across our line of products and allows our users to move from first design to full motion of the pattern all within one suite of products and within one application! Your entire design process can now be created within OptiTex large variety of software solutions” comment Yoram Burg, President of OptiTex USA About OptiTex
