"I have worked in the field of Industrial and Architectural Design for 40 years, and have witnessed numerous 3d viewering applications come and go. The most encouraging was the export to interactive .pdf 3d formats allowing anyone with an Acrobat Viewer or .pdf viewer to interact with the design intent in an immersive way Support of these programs was often not good, and the cost was also prohibitive, but the people at ProtoTech Solutions have made this an attractive package as to price point, and their on going support has made it an integrated and highly functional part of our design process and for development to RPD output."

"ProtoTech solutions offer very versatile products. We use OBJ converter to take engineered conceptual 3D models out of AutoCAD into an OBJ format that is PhotoShop friendly to generate photo-realistic simulations. I have not found another product on the market that makes the process as easy as ProtoTech's OBJ Converter. Proto Tech has friendly and fast customer support as well when needed!"
