context
A prestigious Swiss luxury watch manufacturer wanted to build and feed an interactive, immersive 3D catalog of its luxury products while ensuring full maintenance of its existing technical stack. The goal was also to equip internal technical artists with the necessary tools for efficient and autonomous production. As the sole external partner to the technical team, Numendo deployed three dedicated experts on-site for this strategic project.
intervention
Numendo delivered a end-to-end engagement covering several core areas:
• Technical Development: Custom Python and C/C++ scripts and plugins were developed for Blender and Pixyz to meet the watchmaker’s specific technical requirements. The team prepared and optimized 3D models, texturing, lighting, and 3D logic tailored for Virtual Reality (VR) projects.
• 3D Asset Production: Fichiers were converted and optimized via Pixyz for direct integration into Unity 3D. Production included high-quality texturing, animations, prefab variants, and asset preparation (bevels, zoning, UV mapping) ready for immediate catalog use.
• Coordination & Collaboration: Numendo worked closely with the manufacturer’s internal dev teams to integrate these 3D experiences across platforms (mobile, web, desktop). A clear roadmap shared with all stakeholders ensured seamless communication and technical integration.
• Multi-Platform Optimization: Targeted asset optimizations guaranteed smooth, high-quality performance across mobile and web interfaces, meeting the brand’s stringent technical criteria.
