Vizard Virtual Reality Toolkit is everything you need to build complete, interactive 3D content. Designed for rapid prototyping, Vizard gets you creating fast and provides the resources to deploy even the most challenging applications. With Vizard, even someone with no programming experience can leap into the world of interactive 3D content and soon discover what it's like to have an untethered imagination.

Vizard is guaranteed to support all head-mounted displays, LCD shutter glasses, and several other specialty display technologies such as dome projectors and autostereoscopes. Most commercially available tracking devices are supported in Vizard. Vizard also supports numerous other devices such as gloves, haptic displays, force-feedback systems, and simple Microsoft DirectInputTM compatible gamepads and joysticks. There is even built-in support for high-quality 3D sound and multi-user networking. VRML and other 3D formats are supported to provide you with immediate access to large 3D databases

“Vizard has been a real-enabling experience for me.  I've been employing C++ programmers for the last 15 years to write code for viz_sims for experimental work and there has always been some creative tension between what I visualized I wanted and what a programmer felt was equivalent.  With Vizard I have been able to develop and tweak simulations myself, pilot ideas, show them to the group. Its put me back in control of the experimental stimuli.  Not just that, but the lite-versions have enabled me to develop code on home machines, then port the simple python files to high performance machines to produce silky smooth simulations for the lab/scanner. - A breath of fresh air.  I would recommend Vizard to any behavioural scientist who wants to develop interactive 3D displays.”-  Professor John Wann at Royal Holloway, University of London

“The great thing about Vizard is there are lots of inputs for VR peripherals.”- Tim Goodwin at Virtalis

Vizard Live Characters
is a software plugin that enables real-time human animation and interaction in virtual space by Motionbuilder™ supported motion capture systems.

Unlike previous head and hand tracking solutions for virtual reality, Live Characters technology delivers full human presence for both first person point of view and third person points of view experiences.
It is a perfect match for the avatars of Vizard Complete Characters and Soldiers package. Live Characters requires the Vizard Enterprise edition and a full version of Motionbuilder™.
