Electric Rain has developed software and a technology that significantly shortens the time it takes to publish three-dimensional vector animations to the Internet. Over the past two years, Electric Rain has quickly become the industry-leading developer and supplier of 3D-to-vector solutions.

Swift 3D v1.0 standalone debuted in April 2000 and represented the first 3D graphics software tool of its kind, enabling designers to quickly create 3D vector imagery for use with popular rich media authoring tools such as Macromedia Flash. The core technology within Swift 3D is the company’s proprietary RAViX 3D Vector Rendering Technology, which converts 3D geometry into the widely used Adobe Flash (SWF), SVG, AI, and EPS vector formats. Simple 3D animations that took 10-20 hours to complete in Flash two years ago, can be created in minutes with the RAViX Technology.

The Swift 3D product line includes the company’s standalone application, currently Swift 3D v5, Swift 3D Xpress plug-in for Adobe Flash, and the Swift 3D family of plug-ins for high-end 3D applications; Discreet 3ds max and NewTek LightWave 3D. The plug-ins enable the high-end application the ability to render to popular vector formats including Flash without ever having to leave the host 3D application.

Along with the Swift 3D product line, Electric Rain provides the most complete OEM licensing solution for companies wishing to incorporate its RAViX technology into their own 3D and multimedia applications. Electric Rain has successfully licensed RAViX to Alias for use in Maya 6, Corastar for Strata 3Dpro, Eovia to create VectorStyle, a plug-in for Carrara Studio, and to Born Digital to create a plug-in for Softimage|3D.

Industry giant Adobe has taken notice. As an Adobe Preferred Alliance Partner, Electric Rain was asked by Adobe to build a 3D plug-in for Flash 8, called Swift 3D Xpress, allowing users to quickly convert 2D text and artwork into 3D animations without leaving the Flash interface.
