WEB3D Solutions & Virtual Worlds
- A virtual world is a computer-based simulated environment intended for its users to inhabit and interact via avatars. Some, but not all, virtual worlds allow for multiple users.
- The computer accesses a computer-simulated world and presents perceptual stimuli to the user, who in turn can manipulate elements of the modeled world and thus experiences telepresence to a certain degree. Such modeled worlds may appear similar to the real world or instead depict fantasy worlds. Communication between users has ranged from text, graphical icons, visual gesture & sound. Massively multiplayer online games commonly depict a world very similar to the real world, with real world rules and real-time actions, and communication. Communication is usually textual, with real-time voice communication using VOIP also possible.
- Virtual worlds are not limited to games but, depending on the degree of immediacy presented, can encompass computer conferencing and text based chatrooms. Sometimes, emoticons or 'smilies' are available, to show feeling or facial expression. Emoticons often have a keyboard shortcut.
Old 3D Software vs. native WEB3D on the cloud
Traditional virtual reality & virtual worlds software has been overtaken by native Web 3D, also known as “online 3D WEB”, “hosted 3D WEB, and “on-demand 3D WEB.” Today, more companies than ever are turning to the Web, and specifically to ALTADYN, for business applications like 3D WEB.
- 3D WEB Promises Rapid Time to Value.Eliminating the need for a big up-front capital investment offers an immediate shortcut to 3D WEB success—and money in your pocket in the form of much quicker ROI than any other tool.
- 3D WEB Offers Quick Deployment
- Hosted 3D WEB Makes Customization Much Easier.With online 3D WEB solutions like 3DXplorer, 3D WEB, basic customizations are easy, so even business users can make changes in minutes via a point-and-click interface.
- On-Demand 3D WEB Provides Unlimited Scalability.ALTADYN supports the use of relay servers, your own servers, so there’s no single server to synchronize meetings and you can scale your expansion fast.
- 3D WEB Features Painless Upgrades. Because deployments of new 3D WEB features are virtually instantaneous, you’re always on the latest version with web-based 3D WEB systems—so upgrades are painless. Going through an upgrade of 3DXplorer is just like when your favorite consumer sites, like Web-based email or networking sites, upgrade… all of your “stuff” is there and working right away after the upgrade.
To Summarize:
- On-Premise 3D WEB Software. The outdated, server based virtual worlds, requiring client software downloads and installation, model for on-premise 3D WEB software requires you to invest in an IT infrastructure, including networks and servers, to run the software. You also need to hire a team of IT professionals to install, deploy, and maintain the software as the vendor makes enhancements to features or functionality.
- Web 3D WEB Solutions. Web-based 3D WEB, hosted 3D WEB, on-demand 3D WEB, software-as-a-service (SaaS) 3D WEB, or cloud computing 3D WEB—all these terms refer to the same thing: a new model for delivering 3D WEB over the Internet. With this popular type of 3D WEB offered by ALTADYN, there’s no software or hardware to buy, install, maintain, or upgrade. All you need is a computer (Mac, PC ) under Mac OS, Windows or Linux, and a browser such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Opera, Chrome.
Cloud Computing & 3D WEB
Cloud computing has the IT world abuzz. But what exactly is it… and what does it mean for 3D WEB?
The bottom line is that traditional client/server 3D WEB software is a dying breed, especially for IT organizations that want to contribute to the bottom line. The cloud computing approach to 3D WEB software shifted the market from an ownership to a rental model, freeing businesses from the hassle and expense of software purchasing, deployment, and maintenance.
Cloud computing is another way to describe the much more compelling model of delivering business software over the Internet. With Web 3D WEB solutions, you can cut costs because you only pay to use the software instead of licensing it. A multitenant platform with a single, common infrastructure and code base that is centrally maintained—also known as cloud computing—makes this model possible.
