Translate 2D and 3D Graphics and Multimedia Files Your creative staff already uses a wide variety of 2D and 3D Digital Content Creation tools. With these tools they have produced thousands of multimedia files in a variety of formats. How can you reuse these assets when a new project comes along? Can you take assets created on one DCC tool and reuse them in another that is a better tool of choice for that particular project? Or will your creative staff just start all over from scratch? Deep Exploration Standard Edition translates your 2D and 3D graphics and multimedia files so you can leverage them for additional business and entertainment uses. When used with Deep Server or Deep Exploration CAD Edition to transform CAD Models into Lightweight Product Graphics you can create:
- Sourcing communications such as product designs, product mockups, engineering change orders, requests for quote, manufacturing process sheets and more
- Sales communications such as catalogs, brochures, collateral, presentations, multimedia, and more
- Services communications such as operation and maintenance manuals, service bulletins, self-service guides, embedded diagnostics, CBTs, ILTs, IETMs and more
Easily Author a Wide Range of 2D and 3D Product Graphics Multimedia sourcing, sales, and service product communications require a wide variety of 2D and 3D product graphics including: line art for parts catalogs, high quality photoreal images for marketing brochures, 3D steps and product views for supplier assembly instructions, highly interactive 3D animations for IETM-style maintenance procedures, and many more. How many different types of 2D and 3D product graphics do you produce and update today? Deep Exploration Standard Edition can supply the full range of rich 2D and 3D product graphics needed by your customers, partners, and employees.

Augment High-Volume, 2D and 3D Parts to Publishing Graphics Processes Automating business processes is a proven strategy to accelerate time to market, improve quality and cut costs. Yet typical 2D and 3D graphics publishing processes are characterized by manual steps, points of automation, and limited integration. The result is too few graphics and too much cost. What if you could blend powerful server-based transformation and authoring, with powerful desktop tools that let your creative professionals be more creative? Right Hemisphere's Deep Exploration Standard Edition works together with Deep Server to optimize your part to publication processes for 2D and 3D product graphics. You can automatically prepare graphics with Deep Server and then touch them up with Deep Exploration Standard Edition.
