Product configurators increase customer loyalty, boost sales and improve brand loyalty. In this UE Product Configurator Bootcamp you will learn how to create high-quality and interactive product configurators in the Unreal Engine. After the training you will be able to create realistic and immersive environments in which you present your products and enable customers to experience and configure them in real time.
We teach you the necessary skills in the material editor, the interactions with blueprints and the animation workflow. We’ll show you how to bring your project to different platforms, including PC, mobile and VR.
During the training, you will develop a prototype of a real-time 3D configurator together in the group, learning all the relevant steps and tools in UE5. On the last day, you will apply the acquired knowledge yourself: With a task given by us, you reproduce all steps in your own capstone project. After the bootcamp you are part of our community and can continue to ask questions and exchange ideas to realize your visions.
