Professional Solutions for Successful Studies

Virtools' revolutionary interactive 3D technology makes learning complex game or multimedia production easier than ever before. More and more universities are taking advantage of this opportunity by introducing Virtools platform to their arsenal of teaching tools. Virtools's user-friendly graphic interface is the perfect introduction to interactive 3D media, whether students have a foundation in programming or not.

Thanks to Virtools comprehensive interactive 3D development environment, educators are now able to rely on the latest technology used by industrials.

• Fast learning curve allowing easy prototype and fast production because of intuitive graphical authoring approach
• Easy to use: different profiles can handle having knowledge or not (from designers to programmers)
• Collaborative platform: different profiles can work together on the same platform (using from BB’s interface to Virtools SDK)

Teachers and professors always want to provide their students with cutting-edge knowledge and prepare them for the future. Virtools technology meets your needs:

• Provide your students with employment opportunities in the most dynamic and innovative fields
• Benefit from the Virtools academic network: more than 400 academic institutions use Virtools technology
• Motivate your students thanks to Virtools international student competitions within their scholar year

Universities and Academic training centers can order the entire Virtools product line in EDUCATION version:

Customer Quote

The advantage of Virtools is that it is flexible and adaptable to the specificities of any university that needs to use real time 3D, for either in the field of research or for game studies. As I just mentioned the intuitivity of the tool is the real value of Virtools in the educational field as it allows students to become autonomous on their project rapidly.
Virtools is a really adaptative and powerful engine. The Virtools SDK, provided within Virtools, along with the Shader Editor and the VSL, allow your students to easily develop and deploy the possibilities of level design production.

Engineering, the case of the VTT Research Lab Center

• Import of CAD models with 3DXML format
• Introduction to 3D real-time

VTT Technical Research Centre’s objective is to develop new technologies, create new innovations and value added thus increasing customer's competitiveness.

With its know how VTT produces research, development, testing and information services to public sector and companies as well as international organisations.

VTT and Virtools collaborate together for a Vehicular machine cabin design project (like tracktor, fork lift). It is Manual maintenance design.

Architecture, the Museum of Arles Experience

• Visualize your 3D models, navigate through buildings, cities and environments and show how they are to be used
• Bring architects, engineers and computer scientists work together and understand each other

Arles gives users a chance to visit a virtual museum. The application presents an in-depth look at the ancient city of Arles (France) complete with a dynamic walkthrough and text explanations provided by historians.

Game & Multimedia, the winner of the 3D3 and Imagina Grand Prize

• Fast prototyping and full production solution
• Professional platform used in the game industry with console support

Winner of the grand prize at 3D3 and Imagina, this innovative game set in a realistic kitchen environment was created by a team of students from Isart Digital. The solid technical game play caught the judges' eyes.
