Overview

3D model, CAD or 360° panorama

The Govie Editor makes it possible to present a 3D model in a way that was previously only possible with programming knowledge. Add camera moves, interactive hotspots, post effects, or lighting setups to quickly create stunning web applications.

3D model, CAD or 360° panorama

In addition to 3D models, the online text editor can also be used to embed conventional 2D media such as images, text and videos.

Three different Govie types can be created, based on either CAD data, 3D models or 360° images.

  • 360° images

    Integrate 360° images from 3D data, from phone/Go-Pro or directly with Google Street View

  • Video

    Upload videos or embed via link

  • 3D models

    Polygon models from model library or created by yourself

  • Text

    Text editor with a wide range of functions

  • CAD models

    Direct CAD import from STEP, IGES, DWG and over 30 other formats

  • Websites

    Embed websites as IFrame also in Govie

Cineastic Govie

For the creation of visually sophisticated visualizations.

A cinematic govie provides the best visual results and uses additional information from the 3D model. This allows animations to be played at the touch of a button or visibilities to be set.

Technical Govie

Designed for users with a technical focus in mechanical engineering, architecture, and process representations.

Present your CAD models in an effective Govie with highlighting, explosion and section representations.

360° panorama

Designed for Editor users who want to illustrate showrooms, virtual tours or environments.

With a Panorama Govie you can create 360 ° scenes. Besides the option to link Google Street View photos, any 360° photos can be integrated.

Custom environment

Since version 3.2 it is possible to insert an individual background in Cineastic Govie. This environment then also affects the lighting on the object.

Online library

If no 3D models are available, free models can also be inserted directly from the online model library. From this, an interactive web application can now be created with just a few clicks.

Measuring tools

In response to customer requests, a range of measuring tools for determining distances and surface areas has been developed.

Custom design

Using CSS, buttons, menus, text fields and much more can be customized.

Animations

From within the Govie Editor you can start, stop, and pause your animation. You can even play just a range of your timeline or play it backwards.

Besides regular keyframe animations , the GLTF format supports armature and shape keys (aka morph targets).

Visibility of objects

Objects or groups of objects can be hidden or shown using the visibility property. You can add that property to your objects in the 3D-Software of your choice.

Lighting and background colors

For each slide in a Govie, you can change the lighting and background colors. There are several environments to choose from, as well as a custom lighting using sun- or spotlights.

See how it’s done by checking this video demonstration.

Advanced post effects

To make your models look even nicer, we added some post effects like Depth of Field, SSAO, Bloom, Sobel / Edge Detect, and custom CSS.

interactive hotspots

Hotspots can be used as interactive Jumpmarks to navigate through your Govie. In addition, they serve as labels or to jump to external pages.

Watch this video to see hotspots in action.

Features of the online interface

Online-Dashboard

Your dashboard is the starting point for creating and organizing your projects. Get an overview of your projects, see all your workspaces, upload new media to the library, and share or embed your Govie.

Share within seconds

For each Govie you can either release a draft or publish the Govie. Either way will get you a share link, but the draft will always lead to the latest version, so people will see any changes you make immediately. Publishing a Govie creates a fixed revision, so you can continue working while users only see that particular status.

no traffic restrictions

Currently, there is no limit to the number of models you can upload. However, the file size is limited to 350 MB. We recommend that you make your file as small as possible to reduce loading times.

File formats

More than 30 different formats are supported by our platform, and native CAD formats such as STEP, DWG, DXF or IGES can also be used.
