ONU Releases ONU One 2.0

ROYAL OAK, Mich., March 01, 2017 -- ONU made significant upgrades to its 3D SaaS platform. Version 2.0 features include faster load times, enhanced photo realism and maximized uptime. Existing clients adopted the new version, and the improvements will attract new users. ONU is continuing to set the standards for 3D visualization.

Xenith Helmets uses ONU One to offer custom helmets for its customers using a simple iframe embed on their website.

ONU grew out of the demand to use CAD files beyond the design program. ONU One delivers 3D product models onto mobile, in virtual and augmented realities, and on the web. No matter the platform, products look and behave like the real thing.

Since photorealism is a key feature of 3D visualization, ONU works to create the best product views. Further enhancing the level of photorealism was a primary focus for Version 2.0. Upgrades like self-shadowing provide true-to-life depth and realism. Textures and materials have finer detail, like fabric weaves and grains. Products pop on the screen for a more engaging e-commerce experience.

Another key upgrade is faster load time. Gallup found that technical difficulties make customers actively antagonistic towards a brand. For the best possible experience, ONU reduced the load time by more than 50%. The back end performance, memory footprint and uptime were all improved. ONU also added a product thumbnail for customers to view during the minimal load time.

A major change in ONU’s infrastructure was implementing Amazon Web Services’ CloudFront. Their reliability means ONU’s 3D scenes are always available. CloudFront meets the highest standard for content delivery networks: close to or exceeding five nines, or in excess of 99.999% uptime. ONU also dedicates itself to providing the highest quality to clients and their customers.

“The two most important factors when it comes to the customizer are image quality and load times. You would think this would be problematic as the two are seemingly at odds with each other – the better the quality the slower it should take to load and vice versa. Version 2.0 of the customizer has delivered both faster load times and higher image quality – which will allow our customers to know exactly what they’ll be getting without the delay!” said Jack Docal, Digital Strategist at Xenith.

“As WebGL and HTML5 have evolved, real-time 3D rendering on the web has become a reality. We are pushing these technologies to their limits, helping companies provide the best possible experience to their customers,” said Sam Sesti, President of ONU.
