Product Perception Experience

With Product Perception Experience, design managers or designers (whether they specialize in shape design, surface design, exterior/interior design, or color & trim design) can communicate the design intent and design progress in 3D. They do so by defining a product experience that uses multiple product variations (such as geometry variants, color and material variants, simple product behaviors) and real-time rendering.

Product Perception Experience has an Authoring mode to create the presentation experience, and a Presentation mode to play it. Some of the key capabilities are as follows:

  • Create product, position, material, human, simulation, and viewpoint variants of a product.
  • Showcase the different variations using stage variants.
  • Configure the Presentation mode by hiding stuff for play, and defining trigger objects.
  • Play the experience in desktop mode, or in VR mode using an HMD (Head-Mounted Display) device.



Important: Product Perception Experience leverages a data model that is optimized to offer the best experience when playing a presentation. With this data model, the underlying definition of a part (geometrical sets, geometry features, faces…) is not exposed. Consequently:
  • You can access separately geometries that are located above the level of the physical part only.
  • Every single real-life part must have been defined as a single physical part in the inserted physical product in order to apply product, material or position variants to it.

Product Perception Experience works with Live Rendering or Human Design for more advanced experiences.
