Spatial.io & echo3D Demo (Tutorial)

Tools for 3D creators keep getting better and better! Spatial.io allows users to create fully immersive 3D spaces, objects and avatars. It has a creator toolkit and several Unity sample worlds to explore — you’re invited to build your own and you can check out their Creator Toolkit. This provides a lot of control and creativity. Users may however feel the need to add additional content or control the behavior outside of what Spatial allows.

echo3D is not only a 3D asset management platform (especially for enterprise applications), but it allows users to manage additional 3D assets in more customizable ways so users can get the best of both worlds in one Unity project. echo3D and Spatial.io are free to use. echo3D has premium features available for paid tiers.

In this project, we are demonstrating how easy it is to import a 3D chair from the echo3D cloud into an existing Spatial.io environment.
