Google shows off Blocks, a 3D modeling tool made for VR

in #technology7 years ago

Hey, wassup readers!
I was scrolling through my news feed and found this cool new stuff from google.
So decided to share with you all.
Here is my study on it.

Blocks is the latest effort from Google to simplify content creation in VR and build a made-for-VR experience that only makes sense for the virtual reality medium.

The app, which is available now for free for the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift , takes the simplicity of Tilt Brush and injects it into 3D object modeling, letting users build, export and share cool little blocky creations to the web with ease.

One of the biggest complaints people have about VR titles is their lack of visual fidelity given the processing power needed to handle even the most rudimentary experiences. Blocks plays off these restraints to its benefit, allowing developers the chance to build simple polygonal objects quickly and export them into the AR of VR apps that they’re building.

The app seems to be going for a lower level of realism than apps like Oculus’s Medium sculpting tool aspires to be. Here the focus seems to be resting more strongly on developers and novices rather than full-blown artists, something that might make the tool a bit less intimidating than many have found Medium to be.
