NXN, Right Hemisphere Announce Technology Sharing Agreement

NXN Software and Right Hemisphere announced an alliance that will provide a 3D previewing option to NXN’s asset management product, NXN alienbrain Studio. Both companies will sell the bundled technology. The current versions of NXN’s software display 2D thumbnails of 3ds max, Maya and XSI models that are generated within the separate applications. The integration with a special preview version of Right Hemisphere’s Deep Server technology will enable NXN products to generate and display a wider range of file types as 2D thumbnails, and will also generate 3D previews for those files. Supported file types include Maya, 3ds max, XSI, Lightwave, AutoCAD, IGES and others. In addition, NXN will integrate its product range with Right Hemisphere’s Deep View technology, which will enable users on NXN’s Windows clients to preview and, in NXN alienbrain VFX, to mark up previewed 3D files, regardless of whether the users are running a 3D application on their machines. NXN’s 3D file previewing will be offered as an option in NXN alienbrain Studio and VFX this Fall. The technology will be showcased by NXN and Right Hemisphere at Siggraph.
