| Softkinetic Partners with Virtools Softkinetic has announced at the Game Developers Conference a partnership with 3DVIA's Virtools to incorporate its gesture recognition application as part of Virtools' suite of integrated 3D software solutions. The collaboration provides video game creators with a software solution for building real-time 3D experiences with superior graphics and complex interactivity. Initially, Softkinetic's iisu technology will be fully compatible and integrated with Virtools 4.1 development platform. It is the most comprehensive solution for building and deploying 3D experiences on personal computers, game consoles, and the web. Softkinetic's patent pending iisu 3D gesture recognition software takes interactivity to a new level allowing players to interact directly with the games, through a 3D camera, without the need for a controller. The iisu middleware platform supports all available 3D depth sensing cameras and insulates game and application developers from the low-level technicalities of the cameras. A rich set of interfaces allows developers to focus on gameplay design and development and dramatically reduces development cycles. Softkinetic's iisu is delivered as a Software Development Kit to developers, and includes technical consulting, 3D graphics and application development services. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Game News :: home page |
