You may ask yourself what the advantages of 3D modeling and animation are. Well, they can graphically simplify complicated concepts and convey complex interrelationships that are difficult to visualize.

Animation can combine vast amount of scientific data into a compact package, which can then be presented simplistically. We can use 3D modeling and imagery to visualize in great detail what an object will look like before it is built. It can be evaluated for strength, fit, mass properties and aesthetics. Once your object has been modeled and rendered in three dimensions, a whole other world of possibilities opens.

Did you know medical students can now perform complex “virtual surgeries” with 3D animation graphics? This allows for expert training and helps minimize mistakes that might occur. 3D animation has also helped in other areas such as training for astronaunts and pilots. 3D animation has and will continue to grow in our everyday lives.

Open your eyes and see how much 3D animation affects you!
