Unlocking CAD/3D data makes it possible to create digital twins, AR/VR applications and other interactive, real-time 3D content. Optimized 3D models are required for these interactive experiences, but CAD’s complexity and format makes it difficult to transform parametric data into optimal meshes.

Pixyz Studio, a product from Unity, is here to help simplify and speed up these time-consuming data preparation and optimization tasks.

Faster 3D/CAD file preparation and optimization

Pixyz Studio is an interactive data preparation and optimization software application that helps users transform their 3D/CAD data for any real-time 3D visualization scenario. It can convert and adapt over 40 3D file formats, from CAD/BIM files to point clouds.

Pixyz Studio reduces CAD density, complexity, and file size with powerful tessellation algorithms and optimization functions, while maintaining access to critical original data like product hierarchy (full scene tree), metadata and material assignment.

With your CAD/3D data prepared and optimized in Pixyz Studio, you can then export to your team’s dedicated staging tool of choice – Unity, 3ds Max, Maya, and more – and create interactive content.

"3D visualization of aircraft interior design is a real challenge as CAD data evolves continuously. Pixyz helps us win this challenge thanks to its optimized tessellation and optimization tools for CGI and real-time applications. It's fast, light, efficient, and most of all it is flexible and can be customized to our process. We also appreciate the Pixyz team who are very reactive to develop new features to respond to our needs."
