CA 2678268
A configurator that creates multi angle images of a product that can be configured with options, accessories, colors and the like in 2d imagery, which does not require special software or hardware to view and interact with the configurator. The configurator automatically generates layer logic of how the product can be assembled for use in a configurator engine to manage the relationships of the 2d art layers. The approach outlined here has moved the linking and logic to the generation phase of the layers thereby automatically generating the configuration logic file at rendering that can be used by a simple program to assemble the layers for a visual interface. Essentially, 2d images are created in a layering scheme from 3d models that can be assembled into any combination based on logic to support various configurations of products. The layering scheme approach prevents the need to render complete product image for each combination including breaking into most/least common factors in separate layers and assembling after the fact. Optimization reduces the number of combinations required for multi-angle images of a configured product. The imagery and logic can be updated without as much manual involvement.
