Senior Engineering Leader at Inter IKEA here - correct, the 3d models have to be served to be viewed - but they are likely the lowest quality versions.
There's a pipeline to covert manufacturing-level models down to Web quality. I've been playing about with those APIs recently.
We also have a small selection of models on github.com/ikea
- praash 3y agoWow, thanks for your response! I'd be interested to hear about the PBR material workflow in the catalogue rendering department! How on earth can you match real life materials at a satisfactory level? How do manufacturers like IKEA collaborate with professional interior designers/architects these days? Are there even professionals outside IKEA who'd wish to produce photorealistic renders with these models?
- tanepiper 3y agoYea there's a whole pipeline, but that's in another department and it's the kind of place no recording equipment it allowed ;) FYI most images you see from IKEA, unless there's a human - it's likely 100% rendered.
