Better collaboration without changing your tools

Are your teams trapped in software silos?

Your employees spend their time juggling software with proprietary data formats. And yet this data is not structured according to your business needs.

Rather than adapting your business to the constraints of these tools, we offer you the opportunity to regain control of your digital environment.

The intelligence of an infrastructure that unifies your 3D data

The Digital Backbone is an infrastructure that connects your specialized 3D software, such as Blender, VRED, VRay, Unity, Patchwork 3D and many others, to build customized, synchronized and interoperable processes.

It connects data and tools to streamline workflows between visualization, design and marketing in industrial environments.

It lets you leverage your digital assets without changing your existing tools.

Immediate benefits

Native interoperability

without data duplication

Sovereignty

over your digital assets

Acceleration

of production cycles

3 examples with Blender and VRED

Collaboration on a project between two Blender and VRED users thanks to the Digital Backbone.

This video shows how a Blender scene can be integrated into a project via Lumiscaphe’s Digital Backbone 3D.

This is a simple use case, developed in Python, which demonstrates the benefits of an interoperable and fluid process, without changing the tools in place.

Steps seen in the video:

  1. Blender and the Project Editor
  2. Creating a project via the Project Editor, generating a Digital Backbone database
  3. Using the Lumiscaphe plugin for Blender to load this database
  4. Selecting this database in Blender via the Lumiscaphe plugin
  5. Resetting the Blender workspace
  6. Saving the Blender scene in the Digital Backbone database
  7. Loading the Blender scene from this same database
  8. The Blender scene now lives in the Digital Backbone, accessible and synchronized via its database

This video shows a simple example of collaboration between two Blender users via Lumiscaphe’s Digital Backbone 3D.

Each user works on a different aspect of the scene (environment, materials), then saves their changes to the shared database. The Digital Backbone allows contributions to be automatically merged, illustrating a seamless collaborative workflow without changing existing tools.

Steps seen in the video:

  1. Opening the Blender scene from the Digital Backbone
  2. One user works on the scene layout
  3. The other user works on the shader and materials
  4. Each user saves their scene in the Digital Backbone project
  5. Then updates their scene by merging the two

This video shows an example of collaboration between Blender and VRED via Lumiscaphe’s Digital Backbone 3D.

Both users can work on the same scene simultaneously, one on modeling in Blender, the other on materials in VRED, using a shared database. Changes are centralized, merged, and then automatically reloaded into VRED, demonstrating seamless interoperability between tools.

Steps seen in the video:

  1. Selecting the Digital Backbone database in which to save the scene
  2. Casting the Blender scene in VRED format into the Digital Backbone using a Python tool.
  3. Opening the scene in VRED from the Digital Backbone
  4. One user works on the scene layout in Blender
  5. … and saves it to the Digital Backbone database
  6. The other user works on materials in VRED
  7. … and saves the VRED changes to the Digital Backbone database
  8. Casting the Blender scene in VRED format into the Digital Backbone using a Python tool, then merging the two scenes into the Digital Backbone database.
  9. Getting the merging result in VRED
