Web
Developers Lining Up to Join the Cult
Cult3D's NEW multi-platform 3D object
rendering engine now available
UPPSALA,
SWEDEN, March 29, 1999 - Creating highly interactive 3D objects
for web sites used to mean hours and hours of code-crunching on expensive
workstations only to have your objects look terrible and clunky once
they were posted to the Web. Just looking at web 3D could send your
computer into bandwidth overload, wasting precious time or crashing
systems. But a growing number of web developers have joined the ranks
of Cult3D users, creating objects that web users can virtually interact
and play with and view from all angles while online. And even businesses
are learning that interactive 3D products that consumers can "try
before they buy" are Cultivating e-commerce and online sales.
Cult3D is NOW AVAILABLE for download at www.cult3d.com
"Cult3D is a must see for anyone who is interested in animation for
the web," said Vince Backeberg, Emmy-award winning animator whose
animation credits include work on the California Raisins, The Disney
Channel's Adventures in Wonderland, and many PC games. "Cult3D is
new, innovative, and a must have for any web developer interested
in bringing true 3D to the web."
Already organizations like Nokia, CNN, the Nobel Foundation, Siemens,
Bang and Olufsen, Absolut Vodka, and Bigbug Interactive have discovered
the Culture shock that Cult3D can bring to their web sites. The power
of Cult3D's rendering engine is allowing customers and site visitors
to see products, services, and objects in amazing 3D-and without those
funny glasses!
"Telia believes that Cult3D brings a lot of promise to e-commerce,"
said Lars Lunberg, competence manager, corporate development and human
resources for Telia, the Swedish telecom giant. "Telia has been involved
in Cult3D technology since the beginning. We are planning to use Cult3D
extensively in our training and human development programs both inside
the Telia organization and with our partners and customers."
