Amazon launches Sumerian platform to make VR/AR development easier

Amazon has launched a platform called "Sumerian", which provides tools and resources that allow anyone to easily create and run AR, VR, and 3D applications. Unlike Microsoft's Paint 3D or Google's Poly, "Sumerian" is not a simple 3D content creation tool. It is a complete set of tools and services. Developers can build a multi-platform experience and run it on the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive. Or compatible with WebVR browsers on iOS devices.

Although Amazon's Sumerian is still in the preview stage, it also includes a web-based editor that allows anyone to drag and drop 3D objects (such as furniture, buildings) and characters onto “scenes” (such as rooms, office environments, and landscapes). in. It also allows anyone to import objects from third-party repositories such as Sketchfab or Turbosquid, or to create and import their own objects.

The following is a partial description of Amazon's Sumerian features:

Editor: A web-based editor for building 3D scenes, importing resources, scripting interactions and special effects, and for cross-platform publishing.

Object Library: This is a library that can pre-build objects and templates.

Material Import: Upload 3D material for your own scene design. Sumerian supports importing FBX, OBJ, and upcoming Unity objects.

Script library: Provides a JavaScript script library through its 3D engine for advanced scripting functionality.

Avatar Personas: Animated realistic 3D characters that can be customized based on gender, voice, and language.

AWS service integration: Integrate Amazon Polly text-to-speech services and Amazon Lex intelligent voice interactions to add speech and natural language to Sumerian's virtual characters.

In addition, the script library can be used with the AWS Lambda cloud computing service. Content created by Amazon Sumerian can be hosted in the AWS cloud and served from publicly accessible endpoints through URLs so that users can access them from any supported client device.

According to Marco Argenti, Amazon’s vice president of technology, “Various industries are aware that VR and AR technologies have a very wide application potential, but the development of a VR/AR application requires specialized technologies and tools that make them feel helpless. With Sumerian Developers can create real, interactive VR/AR applications in a matter of hours."

In addition, Amazon also hopes that developers will bring more possibilities through Sumerian.
