Sub-assembly Support & Custom Components
Disassemble and reassemble subassemblies easily, with advanced response options to control individual parts' assembly states in dynamic VR scenarios.
Assembly Dependency (All vs Any)
Set assembly rules flexibly, choosing whether all components must be removed or any single part allows disassembly, improving mechanical training simulations.
Error Tracking in Assembly
Track and record the number of errors during assembly tasks, enabling designers to measure skill levels and assess learner performance in VR training simulations.
FBX Importer: Eliminate Static Animation
Import only moving parts of FBX models, reducing unnecessary keyframes and allowing partial animations for more efficient and realistic VR simulations.
Decimation
Reduce object polygon counts while maintaining essential shapes and features. This optimizes your scene for a faster, smoother VR experience on standalone and mobile devices.
LOD Generator
Automatically create multiple levels of detail for objects. The system swaps models based on distance, significantly boosting performance without sacrificing visual quality in large scenes.
Training Builder & Logic
Create dynamic, interactive VR experiences with smart logic tools.
Voice Recording Response
Record users' voices directly within VR experiences, making it easy to capture answers, collect feedback, and save recordings for analysis or AI-driven insights.
Upload Files to SimLab Vault Response
Enable users to upload files directly into SimLab Vault during VR experiences, simplifying feedback collection, content sharing, and collaboration across teams.
Colored Groups & Notes
Organize your Training Builder logic into colored groups with descriptive notes, making complex VR experiences easier to manage, understand, and share with other creators.
Shareback & Reload as Events
Save, share, and reload user progress as Training Builder events, giving designers precise control over when and how users' VR work is saved or shared.
Import Scene & Import to User
Import entire scenes or place objects directly in front of users, simplifying object placement for both large and small items in VR experiences.
Resource Manager
Manage and package additional resources, including fonts, sounds, images, and data files, ensuring they are available and integrated during VR experiences.
Blend Texture
Combine two or more textures in VR to create entirely new materials, unlocking advanced visual possibilities for medical, educational, or industrial experiences.
On Key Pressed & Released Events
Designers can now trigger VR actions precisely using key press and release events, providing more control over interactive 3D menus in desktop and VR.
AI & Intelligence
Smarter AI, faster responses, and flexible AI integration options.
AI Upgrade: GPT-4.1 & Faster Responses
Experience smarter AI with GPT-4.1 and significantly faster voice responses that begin playback instantly, improving the responsiveness and interactivity of VR experiences.
Choose AI Provider & Model
Select your preferred AI provider and model for VR experiences, including free or paid options, offering flexibility and cost-efficient AI integration.
Include AI Key in Experience
Embed an AI key directly into your experience, allowing users to interact with AI without needing personal API keys or additional setup steps.
Performance & Quality of Life
Optimized performance and features for smoother VR experiences everywhere.
Flex Bodies Optimization
Flex Bodies now run much smoother and faster on all devices, enabling more animations and complex interactions without performance slowdowns or lag in VR experiences.
Better Rendering on Any Device
Achieve realistic lighting, shadows, and reflections across all devices, even lower-end VR headsets, with baked lighting merged seamlessly with multiple material types.
Download & Use External Files
Import external assets like textures, images, or models directly into your VR experience, updating content in real time without modifying the original package.
Save Visual Settings
Store material and environment modifications created in SimLab VR Viewer, then apply them directly to your scene inside SimLab Composer or SimLab VR Studio.
Add-on Integration
Expand your workspace by loading powerful add-ons directly into SimLab Composer or VR Studio. Use official SimLab tools or integrate custom add-ons you've created yourself.
MR Spatial Sync
Simplify Mixed Reality setups by perfectly aligning 3D elements with real-world environments. Easily match virtual furniture to physical room dimensions for accurate, immersive spatial planning.
