Protocube Reply’s real-time 3D configurator was created to support the customer-centric strategies of companies, to offer a shopping experience that can satisfy any customisation need.
The Protocube Reply real-time 3D configurator was born with the aim of supporting the customer-centric strategies of companies in order to ensure a shopping experience that can meet any customization need.
REALISM AND INVOLVEMENT IN 3D
Internet and digital technologies have offered to the consumer a central role, allowing them great decision-making freedom and, at the same time, a natural disorientation concerning the hyper-offer of content on the web. Companies must differentiate from each other, focusing the attention of the marketing and sales strategies on the customer experience rather than on the characteristics of the product.
The Protocube Reply real-time 3D configurator was conceived to allow companies to focus on the experience thanks to realism and involvement, features whose quality can be hugely enhanced by 3D technologies.
The key lies in the basic technology of the configurator, Real-Time Rendering, in other words, the realistic real-time visualization of the product that can support the User Experience on multiple levels:
REALISM: thanks to the photorealistic rendering, the product “seems real”. The customer is able to overcome the perceptive barrier generated by not touching a physical product with their hand.
INVOLVEMENT: real-time rendering offers the possibility of constantly displaying the customization choices. This guarantees a natural involvement of the customer in their digital experience. This is an aspect made more effective by the quality of the user interface.
The UI/UX design of the Protocube Reply real-time 3D configurator aims at making the user-product interaction simple and immediate. Exactly how it would happen in reality. The customer must have the ability to “click” directly on the product, rotate it and zoom in on all the details that interest them, to be able to customize as they please.

The real-time 3D configurator allows you to realistically display a product’s customization options. (Credits Protocube Reply)
PRODUCT CATALOG MANAGEMENT
The Protocube Reply real-time 3D configurator is able to dynamically manage the digital product catalog which can be continuously updated based on the company’s business needs. The new 3D models, complete with every detail related to materials, finishes and accessories, can be inserted into the configurator and be immediately available to the end user.

In addition to interaction, a variety of options provided by the 3D digital catalog are necessary to achieve an effective involvement between the user and the product. (Credits Protocube Reply)
