Models |
| 3D
models are mathematical representations of three-dimensional real-world
objects for use in computer simulations. Rendered in any modern virtual
environment, Simthetiq models produce some of the most vivid, valid
and interactive digital renderings available on the market.
Simthetiq’s
models are created by an in-house team of highly qualified (and experienced)
3D artists and developers. Every model is painstakingly constructed
in specialised software following a well-defined proprietary process
that ensures maximal fidelity, functionality and efficiency in every
product.
Three
dimensional models represent an object through a collection of points
in 3D space, connected by various geometric entities such as triangles,
lines, curved surfaces, etc. These points and related information are
entered by hand, calculated algorithmically, or are scanned as necessary,
and stored as data. This data is rendered in real-time by a computer
within a simulation or virtual environment to create an on-screen representation
that has the appearance depth, width and height, texture, reflectivity,
and other key characteristics such as movement and manipulability. |
| |
|
Level
of Detail
Developed for high-end simulation and gaming platforms, Simthetiq’s
3D models support an optimal balance between texture resolution, level
of detail (LOD), and triangle count, resulting in unsurpassed quality
and performance. Every model is available with multiple levels of detail,
making the higher-end perfect for simulations and games, and the lower-end
ideal for mobile apps. Simthetiq ensures smooth transitions and preserves
model recognition through key compnents between the various levels of
detail while maintaining a 50% reduction in detail per LOD. No matter
what the capabilities of the system or target platform, every 3D model
has the option to be reconfigured and adjusted ensuring a customizable
and cost-effective solution for your business. Explore all of Simthetiq’s
model configuration options and find the ones that work for you. |
|
|
Textures
Developed using accurate and detailed data, all of Simthetiq’s
3D models include a variety of paint schemes, accommodating any type
of scenario, however, custom alternatives are available upon request.
Simthetiq’s current next-gen texturing process, makes possible
for the inclusion of enhanced reflectivity characteristics, thermal
signatures, fine details and visual ques resulting in a 3D model of
exceptional realism, high fidelity and superior performance. Options
for high resolution textures provide enough visual detail to be able
to differentiate subtle differences between similar models—such
as in unique aircraft markings—and gives the ability to identify
and read instrument panels. |
|
|
3D
interiors
All of Simthetiq’s windowed 3D models include a fully textured
3D interior. This implies that all major internal parts, such as steering
wheels, control sticks and seating for instance, are modeled as true
3D objects. Depending on the general requirements, Simthetiq also offers
the option for including intricately modelled interactive interiors
and instruments, resulting in increased realism and a new level of experience
for the user. |
|
|
Configuration
Options
Available for every 3D model, Simthetiq has added a bundle of configuration,
including sound and weapon effects, complex animations, advanced shaders,
custom texture schemes and interactive interiors to name a few. This
affirms a quality product of the highest standards that meets any functional

Terrains |
Simthetiq
3D terrains are mathematical representations of real-world topography
and features, both natural and man-made, for use in computer simulations.
Rendered on any modern simulation platform, Simthetiq terrains produce
environments of outstanding integrity and verisimilitude for the most
compelling simulations currently possible.
Every
Simthetiq terrain is built by an in-house team of highly qualified (and
experienced) experts in 3D topographical mapping. Working with highest
quality source information, Simthetiq's developers invest thousands
of man-hours following a proprietary development process that ensures
a product of exceptional fidelity, functionality and computational efficiency.
Three dimensional terrains represent a topographical area and its features
through an extensive collection of image, elevation and vector data.
This information is collected, scanned, entered by hand, and calculated
algorithmically, and stored as data. The data is rendered in real-time
by a computer within a simulation to create an interactive virtual environment
that may be explored, navigated and manipulated with striking verisimilitude
and exceptional power.

Textures
Terrains
Simthetiq employs the highest standard when selecting and acquiring
satellite imagery in order to achieve the most accurate and geo-specific
virtual terrain as well as offering adjustable texture quality to accommodate
any system configuration or performance limitation. To further achieve
a superior resolution at ground level, layered textures are tiled over
top the preexisting satellite imagery. This allows for enhanced surface
detail and adds complex variations to the environment.
Buildings & Assets
Through the use of various tileable and specific geo-typical textures
in every building and assets, allows Simthetiq to achieve higher resolution
and increase efficiency in larger virtual terrains. Further use of layered
textures enables a seamless blend while adding increased detail and
variation to the environment. For added realism, Simthetiq also offers
light maps to accommodate night scenes and shadow maps to depict accurate
ambient lighting. |
