VirtualMapper
A realtime preview tool for projection mapping that renders compositions onto 3D mesh surfaces via Syphon/Spout.
What is VirtualMapper?
Virtual Mapper is a realtime preview tool for projection mapping and non-planar video production. It allows video artists and VJ's to visualize how their compositions from software like After Effects will look when projected onto 3D surfaces by rendering them onto imported mesh objects in real time. This solves the problem of accurately previewing complex projection mapping setups before actual deployment.
Video artists, VJ's, and installation creators working with projection mapping, 3D mapping, or immersive visual installations who need to preview their work on complex surfaces.
Developers choose Virtual Mapper for its realtime preview capability integrated directly with professional video software via Syphon/Spout, eliminating the need for physical setups during the design phase. Its straightforward FBX import and focus on projection surfaces make it a specialized tool for accurate spatial visualization.
