Interactive 3D Product Instructions
Go beyond video: customers rotate and zoom the product in their browser and click a part to watch how it is installed. Works on phones and desktops with no plugins.
A product you can explore
Interactive 3D instructions are demonstration applications that run directly in the browser. They are built with WebGL, on Verge3D technology, so there is nothing to install and they work on phones, tablets and desktops. The customer does not watch a story. The customer takes the product in hand and looks at it from every side.
What the viewer can do
- Rotate the 3D model around the object and zoom in on any detail.
- Hide and show parts to see inside and to look at one module more closely.
- Read hints. Pop-up labels, explanatory texts and icons appear where they are needed.
- Hear sound. Audio supports the explanation where it helps.
Configurators: from choice to production
The same technology builds product configurators. The visitor rotates the 3D model in the browser and chooses colour, shape, texture and dimensions interactively. The result is not just a picture. The chosen configuration can be sent straight to the production department, which plans the work, and to the finance department, which prepares the price and the invoice.
All the information is collected without staff in between, with no re-typing and no misunderstandings. For the sales manager this greatly simplifies the work: the order arrives complete, and the time goes into talking to customers instead of collecting parameters.
Where it fits
On a product page that has to explain a complex product, for a distributor who needs to demonstrate it, at a trade show on a tablet, and in the sales process where every customer wants a slightly different variant. An interactive model can be added to your own website with a link or an embed.

Frequently asked questions
Do customers need to install anything?
No. Interactive instructions run in the browser on WebGL, on phones, tablets and desktops, with no app or plugin.
Can a configurator pass the order to our production and finance departments?
Yes. The configuration chosen by the visitor can be sent on to production and finance. How it connects to your systems is agreed for each project.
What do you need to start a project?
Your existing assembly or installation guide (PDF, drawings or text) and any 3D or CAD files, drawings or photos of the product. Send what you have and we will agree what is still missing.
Do I see the animation before it is final?
Yes. The work starts with a timed script and a rough animation preview, so you can approve the sequence before the final render.
Where can I use the finished video?
On your website, YouTube, product pages, in-store screens, trade shows and training. Delivered as a standard video file.
