Russia - A virtual design laboratory was opened in a St. Petersburg university

Russia (bbabo.net), - Laboratory "PromTechDesign" - one of the results of the strategic project of the university in the framework of the program "Priority 2030". Its goal is to contribute to the economic and cultural development of St. Petersburg.

The laboratory is equipped with special equipment and software for designing and creating virtual objects. Students, teachers and partners of the university will be able to create avatars and objects of the digital world here.

“For example, we scanned a person in full growth, transferred the digital model to a 3D editor, where we can supplement it with other objects, as well as change the color, shape, add an exoskeleton,” says Boris Podolyakin. - An augmented object can be placed in any virtual space and simulate its behavior in the real world. We can make him move, run, jump - in a word, add any action we need. For designers and constructors, an important part of the work is the collection of data on the measurements of the scanned object. Now, based on our development, we are able to obtain about 150 measurement positions. The high-tech equipment of our laboratory will replace several stages of work for technologists - designers working on digital projects.

The digital capacities of the laboratory also allow working with better visualization of products as part of the new educational program "3D Industrial Design and Engineering": students create virtual models, virtual clothes for games and for trying on digital avatars, develop multimedia content for brands, create videos using multimedia graphics, virtual collections, and digitize clothes.
