Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What are CAD and CAE visualization SDKs?

Visualization software development kits (SDKs) provide developers with the tools needed to embed 3D visualization into their applications. Tech Soft 3D offers visualization SDKs tailored specifically for both CAD (computer-aided design) and CAE (computer-aided engineering) workflows, enabling accurate model display, performance optimization, and interactive viewing.

What end-user CAD and CAE visualization software options are available?

Tech Soft 3D currently provides end-user CAD visualization capabilities through our SpinFire products. While we do not currently offer end-user CAE-specific visualization software, our HOOPS SDKs allow developers to build their own CAE visualization tools.

What is the difference between HOOPS Visualize and HOOPS Envision?

HOOPS Visualize is built for CAD and AEC (architecture, engineering, and construction) applications, offering capabilities like PMI viewing, large model rendering, and advanced visualization features.

HOOPS Envision, is designed for CAE workflows. It can read meshes and nodes, interpret CAE results, and serves as an all-in-one CAE data processing toolkit with integrated graphics support.

Does HOOPS Visualize integrate with any data translation SDKs?

Yes, HOOPS Visualize and HOOPS Exchange have a tight integration. With HOOPS Exchange, you can gain access to 30+ popular CAD file formats.

Does HOOPS Envision integrate with any data translation SDKs?

Yes. HOOPS Envision integrates with HOOPS Access, our CAE-specific data translation SDK. HOOPS Access supports reading 30+ CAE formats and writing to over 10 formats, enabling broad interoperability for simulation data.
