Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 3D Product Configurator?
A 3D product configurator is a real-time visualization tool that allows customer to select and combine product options interactively, exploring every detail in 3D so they can make informed decisions independently.
There are different types of 3D configurators that depend on the type of product and the type of shopping experience the brand or retailer is looking to offer their customers.
What are the benefits of 3D configurators?
3D product configurators boost sales by transforming passive browsing into active exploration, empowering customers to visualize every option instantly and easily choose the product options they want. This immersive, self-guided experience helps customers make more informed choices and provides the confidence they need to make a purchase.
At Emersya, we believe it’s this combination of consumer empowerment, engagement and confidence that make Emersya’s 3D configurators a proven driver of conversion and a powerful tool for reducing returns.
How do 3D configurators improve customer experience?
A 3D product configurator replaces static images with real-time 3D rendering, empowering shoppers to visualize the product instantly, from any angle, as they browse available options.
The interactive tool enhances the shopping experience by making it more immersive, increasing customer engagement and reducing hesitation to create a more confident path to purchase.
What types of products does a configurator work best for?
3D product configurators work best for products with multiple options, components or variants which means they are great solutions for selling furniture, sports equipment, apparel, luxury goods, industrial products and vehicles.
They are particularly impactful for made-to-order, modular and personalizable products where helping customers visualize their exact configuration or custom product is key to closing the sale.
How quickly can the 3D product configurator be built?
It depends on your project’s complexity. A simple configurator with color and material options and an auto-generated interface can be set up in a matter of hours once your 3D assets are published on the Emersya Platform. More complex projects involving custom UI, multiple SKUs and integrations typically take a few weeks.
However, complex your project is, building a 3D configurator with the Emersya platform is significantly faster than developing a custom one from scratch — no rendering engine to build, no infrastructure to set up, no starting from zero.
How much does a 3D configurator cost?
The cost depends on your product complexity, visualization needs, level of UI customization and integration requirements. This article will take you through the different factors to consider when budgeting for your 3D configurator.
Using the Emersya platform to create your 3D product configurator helps you keep production and maintenance costs to a minimum. We offer a number of annual subscription plans with modular options to cater to your project or company needs. If you are looking for help with part of or all of your 3D configurator project, Emersya can provide services for 3D model preparation, configurator setup and custom development.
Do I need to have 3D models?
3D models are an essential component of any 3D configurator. They are what allow customers to interactively explore every option from every angle in real time. That said, you don’t need to have them ready before you start.
Emersya’s in-house expert team can create 3D models from any available assets: product images, CAD drawings, material swatches, garment patterns or physical products… etc. The more high-quality digital assets you can provide, the faster and more cost-effective the preparation process.
Can I use my existing 3D assets?
In most cases, yes you can import your existing assets so you won’t need to start from scratch!
Emersya supports 20+ file formats for 3D models, including glTF, glb, FBX, DAE, OBJ and CAD files, as well as digital material formats including U3M, AxF and Substance files.
To get the best out of your configurator (fast loading, fluid interaction, true-to-life visualization), existing assets sometimes need to be optimized. Emersya provides detailed guidelines for assets coming from all major 3D software, along with platform tools and in-house services to help you get there.
Will the 3D configurator work on my current eCommerce site?
Yes! Emersya is compatible with any eCommerce platform or custom-built website, with no rebuild required. The configurator embeds directly into your product page via iframe, just like a video and connects to your eCommerce system using Emersya’s API.
This allows your platform to retrieve the customer’s selected options and pricing for the add-to-cart summary page and order processing in your back office, keeping your existing checkout flow fully intact.
Can I connect the configurator to my on-demand printing or made-to-order production workflows?
Yes, and this is where a 3D configurator truly transforms your operations. Emersya can automatically generate production-ready files for each custom order (including print-ready text and images for engraving, printing and other personalization techniques) eliminating the costly, error-prone manual preparation that slows down made-to-order workflows.
You can manage this directly through Emersya’s integrated Order Management solution, or connect the configurator to your existing OMS, ERP or PIM via Emersya’s API for a fully automated pipeline.
