“With a visualization-based workflow, PictureBook 6.5 minimizes the interpretation scope during the product development process. Globally, limitless communication and efficiency between decision makers, designers and markets can be achieved. In conjunction with PowerHouse 2.5, the production of images for catalogs and e-commerce is fully automated. The end result, due to the elimination of the physical patterns, allows clients to benefit from significantly reduced variations in production costs and a significant time advantage. These are clear competitive advantages, which are as relevant in the fashion industry as they are in the automotive industry,” explains Sascha Lanninger, SVP for Fashion, Sports & Luxury at RTT.
The user-friendly web interface of PictureBook simplifies project tracking and enterprise-wide decision-making for visual assets – from early product development stages to marketing campaigns. It supports not only 3D specialists, but is just as focused on the requirements of users in marketing and sales departments as well as of agencies. With version 6.5, the coordination is now also interactively possible in 3D via web meetings. PowerHouse automates rendering processes for online product catalogs, and high-circulation print productions. This provides marketing departments and agencies with significant time savings. On the basis of DeltaGen scenes, the full range of file formats of images, videos or personalized on-demand media can be produced automatically. PictureBook distributes the required 3D models in the PowerHouse rendering cloud and uses a powerful framework for monitoring the progress achieved. The flexible architecture allows the rendering processes to be scalable and can be safely used for a variety of user needs. The seamless connection to DeltaGen, the core software of RTT, guarantees a smooth process.
