I was asked by a few people during a meeting today about our "3d Dynamic Brochures" and somehow I wasn't able to do justice to their questions. So sticking to Six Steps aim of enhancing business communication, I would like to brief about what the "Dynamic Brochure" is all about.

Almost all firms have a brochure Designed and Printed which is the ideal and the best communicator about respective business and its activities especially in a quick face to face meeting.

But many a times we are asked by potential clients to send the company profile or brochures online or via email. Companies rightly respond by sending their company brochures or profiles prominently as a PDF attachment.

PDF brochure or profiles sent via email usually are the static image of the printed brochures the company has. Here, The critical absence of an actual person as is the case in a face to face meeting makes the PDF brochures static, monotonous and uninformative leaving a lot of onus on the client to understand your offerings, a for certain negative.

Now with our expertise we can enable video, audio to be played in your PDF with no extra attachment, No additional software. You dont even have to create a new brochure, we can take your already designed brochure and make it dynamic for you.

Imagine you customer opening your pdf and being able to see your product video or audio, understanding what it is you exactly do your USP etc and the kind of personal touch this can create.

Clients do not need internet or any special software. This is accessed as a normal PDF itself.

Applications of this Service:

Equipment Manufacturers can use it to show clients their machine operations
Service Providers can use it to show their USP's, demos etc
Clients use it as a interactive Training document
Interactive Presentations that can have buttons to access any slide at any instant


Basically any thing that will make business communication efficient, easy and safe from unwanted editions

Few important questions asked

File Size: We use our compression technology to reduce video size by extraordinary margins. An example, the videos attached here were almost 25mb, we have reduced it to 6 mb.
We always recommend keeping size small (below 7 mb), especially for sending via email.

Interactive 3d Manuals

Excerpts from Corona 3d

Deliver better manuals at fraction of the cost and higher impact

As a Company official you are responsible for operations, service, technical or customer support. Most of us face major challenges trying
to communicate complex procedures to a global market effectively and efficiently.
Infact not just complex procedures, a global and untapped market creates challenges to communicate even simple operations eg: Operating a mobile, Microwave, and even just replacing batteries. The vast market something easy for one may be extremely complex to the other.

Traditional methods just don’t work and are laborious, costly and error-prone.

Now there is a better solution!
3d Interactive manual is the first for fast and easy production of digital interactive manuals.
These Manual uses animated 3D simulations to clearly communicate complex mechanical procedures. 3D manuals encourage ‘Visual Know-How’ rather than reading comprehension, minimizing translation issues and improving information retention.

BENEFITS AT A GLANCE
Concurrent product and documentation
development accelerates time to market.

Increase revenue opportunities. Better support
manuals increase customer loyalty and rate of
customer retention, helping to up and cross-sell
your products.

Cut costs, reduce total cost of ownership.
Share outputs and reuse content in
downstream processes. Reuse visualizations
and simulations created in computer-based training and other support
materials at no extra cost.

Achieve compliance and safety. Up-to-date
product data and better views of complex
equipment and assemblies help achieve regulatory
compliance.

CREATE 3D MANUALS IN MINUTES
We can help provides an easy to use, intuitive framework that allows
authors to easily create interactive manuals, both 3D animations and
associated text simultaneously.

3d visualization Medical application

href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5Ckng%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_themedata.thmx" rel="themeData">

The body is a complicated machine with multiple functions.  Medical professionals are bound to explain to their patients or relatives of the patients the ailment or medical process that would be followed for the ailment.

A inter disciplinary discussion on such topics are easy for the people involved but the fact is , this is not the case. Most of the times people donot understand medical terminology or expressions but as a human tendency are curious to know everything. Its not easy for a medical professional to explain this in lay man terms. The ability to explain and communicate properly is especially important when the patient has to sign a NOC (No objection/Liability certificate).

3D medical animations are usually employed to depict a medical process or to illustrate medical concepts which are difficult to comprehend. Medical animation can showcase detailed and accurate medical illustrations. They can be used for teaching, legal issues, research, informational purpose etc.

Six Steps can offer such high quality customized services which are both cost effective and efficient

3d Visualizations/Simulation:The New Age Forensics

  3d Visualizations:The New Age Forensics

Court cases and the to and fro deliberations, accusations, arguments and counter arguments, and enormous amount of data very often is a complex task to fathom for the jury. Not many will argue that all cases are won or lost based on the ability of the lawyer to convince the jury.

The upcoming trend of using 3d visualization as a tool to bring forth the actual real life scenario has helped many lawyers to convince jury and help their clients.

The visualizations help in accurately creating a scenario explaining the facts with animation. The ability of modern day tools to simulate scenarios are also a boon.
The simulation tools can be accurately designed to  specs such as weight, dimensions. external factors etc.


We can develop computer generated simulations and images that accurately represent the statements given by witnesses  to help the understanding of specific events or issues.
Working with detailed layouts, diagrams, measurements and photographic evidence a 3d model is created, and visualised or animated or simulated under technical and witness guidance. 
The generated material can be used as a  supportive to the available evidence and help to clarify very complex situations. The ability to visualize and create a onscreen animation allows the jury to consider multiple factors simultaneously  leading to clearer understanding and allowing a more informed decision.

Road Accidents, Industrial accidents, Industrial accidents, we can reconstruct any situation allowing the legal framework to function more smoothly

3d visualization can help product design and manufacturing companies to get their products to market faster and at lesser expense as compared to traditional tools.
Post Designing the original engineering CAD files the next step is to convert this into 3d models of the same. It allows an easy interpretation of the model as described in the previous blog post. The 3d models can be designed to have specific surfaces, textures, lights and multiple levels of rendering to give a virtual and realistic snapshot of the product.

This process can replace the traditional tool of using photography for variety of reasons:
1. 3d designers have complete control over the 3d model, any customization required in lighting, com position, resolution that may be required for packaging, posters, presentations, fliers etc can be created with perfect accuracy. No scanning required to digitize the photograph so the image is first-generation, razor sharp and crystal clear.
2. The model doesn't need to be fully completed before the photographer has a model to shoot.
3. If there are changes, the photographer doesn't need to come back and re-shoot, re-process film, re-scan, etc. Changes can be made on the spot and the image re-rendered to suit needs.
4. The rendering requires less post-rendering work. Masks are generated during the rendering process allowing the background to quickly and simply be replaced. Previewing low-resolution versions using the web allows the client to see exactly what they will get before moving to high-res images.
5. Six Steps can help clients create cost effective and easy tools to quickly move to market. We work hard to prove to satisfy our customers. We're cost-effective and a reliable partner of your marketing team.

3d animation as a sales and marketing tool

SALES AND MARKETING OF MACHINES, INSTRUMENTS, EQUIPMENTS, SERVICES
 
 Using 3d animation as a sales tool can create opportunities and efficiencies that until now were not visible.
We know that animations have being  a part of entertainment industry for a long time, but we fail to notice the reason animations are used, and if we try to see the core reason we come to one conlusion:
3d animations allow us to share our imagination. Imagination that words or pictures cannot describe.

Now going a step forward, why cannot we use the same reason in the business environment. All business are trying to sell their products using combination of traditional tools like images, technical drawings, movies etc..but each has a limitation. Using 3d animation adds that missing part making your presentations complete.


Lets take an example, assume a company wanting to sell a robotic welding machine. Now using the traditional way he will use a combination of the following

and

Now as we can see the following has a few limitations

1. The 2d drawings force the customer to think on complicated terms and use different views to visualize the product.
2. At the same time, the customer also has to focus on the verbal information that is usally accompanied with this kind of presentation. This is very true for companies that are into customized products and services
3. Assuming the product is ready, here the customer can show a video recording of the product, the problem here is the noise that is accompanies noise such as smoke, the light, background etc..these are things that cannot be avoided in a recorded video.
4. Recorded videos cannot show things that are not accessible, such as some operation inside the machine that possibly may be a crucial distinguishing and important factor of your sales pitch

But not along with the above 2 methods if I add the following

Here as we can immediately see the advantages

1. There is no need to visualize, the 3d model of the machine is ready and exactly as per specification
2. We can even customize it to show an application that the customer want to see
3. Its clean, the noise factor, sparks smoke generation is in our control
4. We can even show things that would have normally being accessible
5. The biggest advantage is its quick, a 1 min video makes clear what the machine is, its operation etc and there is no chance of viewers having different perception
6. Multi-use: Use it in websites, online marketing, corporate digital brochures etc

As a good business with aim to providing excellent service, we will strongly advice against focussing too much on any one tool. Even using only 3d animation is not recommended. We strongly believe 3d animations compliments the traditional tools and useing them in combination will give tremendous cost and time savings and shortening the sales cycle duration to minimum.

The biggest reason companies donot opt for animation is

1.  Their blind belief that they can perfectly communicate everything about their product, but the point we miss is, the moment we make someone visualize what we speak their is bound to be difference in perceptions
2. The second reason is cost. I would like to mention that comparing animation cost of a entertainment film and cost for animating a product is like comparing apples and oranges. We need to remember that our main purpose is to make effective communication and be cost effective at the same time.

We look forward to your comments, hints, opportunities. Please contact sales@sixsteps.org.in to know how we can help your business.

Thanks

3d visualization and animation as a multi purpose corporate tool

As per our discussion, 3d animation is a new and upcoming concept used by companies to enhance their business process. Its cheaper then professional videography, more attractive than 2d drawings and photos and easy to adopt.  Some departments that can use 3d animation

• SALES AND MARKETING OF MACHINES, INSTRUMENTS, EQUIPMENTS, SERVICES
• SPECIAL PURPOSE MACHINE MANUFACTURERS
• PRODUCT MANUFACTURERS
• HR TRAINING, EDUCATIONAL, EMPLOYEE TRAINING
• CUSTOMER SERVICE, AFTER SALES DEPARTMENT

SALES AND MARKETING OF MACHINES, INSTRUMENTS, EQUIPMENTS, SERVICES
The most popular of uses. 3d modeling is used to do a realistic modeling and animation of your product or service application. The animation can show unique characteristics of your offerings, the operation etc.  This animation allows your customers to better understand your offerings. It can also be used in you WEBSITES

SPECIAL PURPOSE MACHINE MANUFACTURERS

The 3d animation is used to create a realistic 3d view of the machine you plan to design for your customer, showing not only how the machine will look, but also how it will operate. This helps in making things very clear to customers and they can suggest any changes in the design phase itself , avoiding non conformity problems, when the machine is actually built.

PRODUCT MANUFACTURERS

Its very important to give customers a varied choice to select from, but more choice means more number of prototypes and therefore higher costs. 3d modeling can create 3d animated models of your products, that can be distributed to all your centers. Customers see exactly what they want to buy.

HR TRAINING, EDUCATIONAL, EMPLOYEE TRAINING

Schools, colleges, and companies wherever training is involved, all face a major problem. Certain concepts are difficult to explain and therefore a visual aid is needed. The traditional 2d drawings donot help and create doubts in the audience. 3d animation is very helpful in explaining concepts, that even a novice can understand. They are also used by companies to train employees.

CUSTOMER SERVICE, AFTER SALES DEPARTMENT

3d animations can be a part of your service manuals. A printed manual is rarely read by customers and is sometimes confusing. 3d animations explainning customers of how an assembly needs to be done, precautions, operation use of a machine go a long way in saving time and cost.

I have attached a few animations, for review. They are not industry specific but just give an idea of how 3d animations will help you grow your business.
