After the success of the smartphone the next great paradigm shift is expected to be the use of virtual and mixed reality devices. v-Slam is the first browser that can help you to easily bring your business to this world. Like normal webpages, it supports interactive 3d pages, just by an extension of html.
But unlike the 2d pages, you can actually be in your 3d webpage as a look-alike avatar and receive customers, talk with them, and show them specific products or versions of a product. And you can link to your normal (2d) website, so your 3D website doesn't have to be complete to be effective.
v-Slam is free, so go and have a try: visit the existing sites and examples. (A VR-headset is not required: the PC- and MAC version can be used.)
And all you need is to add some extra pages to your current website to support your business in 3d!
New: Hello World!
New: v-Slam open-sourced!
We have open-sourced both the Unity project of the v-Slam 3d App, as well as de server code. The server code includes the ASP.Net controls that can be used for dynamic X3D generation.
All projects can be found on GitHub.
