&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--I2Wjw7L9--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2400/0%2A_dT_Mteo0c-MSd5P.gif" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--I2Wjw7L9--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2400/0%2A_dT_Mteo0c-MSd5P.gif" alt="" width="800" height="395"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  3D Content Optimization
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.echo3d.com/products/3d-optimization"&gt;Ensure&lt;/a&gt; 3D content interoperability and build interactive 3D experiences by streaming optimized 3D data that has been automatically compressed and converted to fit each user and their device.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Use cutting-edge 3D compression and powerful 3D optimization tools to easily reduce the size of your 3D models without losing resolution quality. Simply store, transfer, and display 3D assets for real-time rendering on devices with limited resources.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--lqkEynxX--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/3288/0%2An8G5flq3zFpxLzQz" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--lqkEynxX--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/3288/0%2An8G5flq3zFpxLzQz" alt="" width="800" height="351"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Backend Setup for 3D Apps
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.echo3d.com/products/3d-backend"&gt;Develop&lt;/a&gt; apps that work with any 3D/AR/VR client-side technologies (ARCore, ARKit, and more) and on different platforms (Unity, Unreal, Android, iOS, HoloLens, Oculus, and more). Build higher-quality smart-scaling experiences that update in real-time, with no redevelopment or redeployment needed.&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--xqUwuogH--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2000/0%2AGMuRiq58GKA0auTZ.gif" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--xqUwuogH--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2000/0%2AGMuRiq58GKA0auTZ.gif" alt="" width="600" height="313"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here’s how to build a 3D Chess game using echo3D and Unity/C# where you can change the pieces remotely pieces you what (forked from UnityChess). The full demo can also be found on echo3D’s GitHub.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This demo allows you to remotely set and swap 3D chess pieces from the cloud. &lt;strong&gt;You can make any 3D model into a chess piece!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Register
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Don’t have an API key? Make sure to register for FREE at &lt;a href="https://www.echo3d.com/signup"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Setup
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Create a new Unity project.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/installation"&gt;Install the echo3D Unity SDK&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Open the sample scene under Assets/Scenes/Board.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.com/quickstart/add-a-3d-model"&gt;Add the 3D model&lt;/a&gt; from the &lt;a href="https://github.com/echo3Dco/Unity-echo3D-Demo-Chess/blob/development/Example%20Assets/3D%20Assets"&gt;3D assets&lt;/a&gt; folder to the console.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.com/unity/using-the-sdk"&gt;Set the API key&lt;/a&gt; in the Inspector of the echo3D Service game object.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.com/web-console/manage-pages/data-page/how-to-add-data#adding-metadata"&gt;Add the metadata&lt;/a&gt; listed in the &lt;a href="https://github.com/echo3Dco/Unity-echo3D-Demo-Chess/blob/development/Example%20Assets/3D%20Assets"&gt;metadata&lt;/a&gt; files.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--Voi3g7hm--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2182/1%2ArdK8bkPqEf0l4K0AkWoKdg.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--Voi3g7hm--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2182/1%2ArdK8bkPqEf0l4K0AkWoKdg.png" alt="echo3D" width="800" height="523"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.echo3d.com"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; lets you load assets from the cloud easily, whether it’s a new project or existing one with tons of assets. Changing assets can be as simple as changing an API key. You can swap out assets even after the game is complete and manage the assets from &lt;a href="http://www.echo3d.com"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt;’s 3D asset management tools. We forked this 3D platformer from &lt;a href="https://github.com/gansari231/Farm-Barn"&gt;gansari&lt;/a&gt;. Check out the full repo on our &lt;a href="https://github.com/echo3Dco/Unity-echo3D-Demo-FarmBarn/"&gt;Github&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This demo lets you remotely manage and change the ‘banana’ and ‘player’ 3D assets from the &lt;a href="http://www.echo3d.com"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; cloud.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Setup
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Built with Unity 2022.3.5.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://console.echo3d.com/#/auth/register?utm_term=%7Bkeyword%7D&amp;amp;utm_campaign=farmbarn_reskin&amp;amp;utm_source=GITHUB&amp;amp;utm_medium=repo"&gt;Register&lt;/a&gt; for your free echo3D account.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Clone this &lt;a href="https://github.com/echo3Dco/Unity-echo3D-Demo-FarmBarn/"&gt;repo&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The echo3D SDK has already been installed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Steps
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Open the sample scene under Assets/Scenes/Level_2.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.com/quickstart/add-a-3d-model"&gt;Add the 3D models&lt;/a&gt; Banana and Player models from the Models folder to the console.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--524HO8w3--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2000/1%2A5I74me0lXhW1JugZ5LFrKQ.gif" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--524HO8w3--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2000/1%2A5I74me0lXhW1JugZ5LFrKQ.gif" alt="echo3D" width="800" height="369"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.com/unity/using-the-sdk"&gt;Add the API key&lt;/a&gt; in the Inspector of the Banana, Banana1, Banana 2 and Player game objects on the echo3DHologram component.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

      <link>https://dev.to/echo3d/echo3d-rolls-out-new-pricing-plan-free-all-access-trial-for-all-1no1</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/echo3d/echo3d-rolls-out-new-pricing-plan-free-all-access-trial-for-all-1no1</guid>
      <description>&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  FREE TRIAL!
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Try All Our Features For 7 Days!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;All plans will now include an all-access 7-day free trial to &lt;strong&gt;all our features&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Try out our &lt;a href="https://www.echo3d.com/cloud/echo3d-features/3d-version-control/3d-model-version-control"&gt;version control&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="https://www.echo3d.com/cloud/echo3d-features/3d-conversion/3d-model-conversion-tool"&gt;compression tools&lt;/a&gt; even from the FREE plan and easily switch to our new PRO or CUSTOM plans.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  CHEAPER CREDITS!
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pay Less For Credits!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We are massively reducing the cost of additional credits for our PRO plan! Each additional credit will now only cost &lt;strong&gt;$0.007/credit&lt;/strong&gt;. That’s &lt;strong&gt;98%&lt;/strong&gt; cheaper than before!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Note that 1 Credit = 10 API calls OR 100MB of Storage OR 25MB of Bandwidth.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;For more information about our new plan updates visit &lt;a href="http://www.echo3D.com/pricing"&gt;www.echo3D.com/pricing&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;During this year’s AWE USA in Santa Clara, &lt;a href="//www.echo3d.com"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; has announced the release of some exciting new features to its cloud platform for 3D asset management. Dubbed the “ULTIMATE 3D Compression,” echo3D’s new compression tool allows developers to greatly compress compress 3D files for low latency 3D data streaming, without compromising how they look or losing important details. &lt;strong&gt;In most cases, the new echo3D ULTIMATE compression tool can outperform compression by Draco, a prominent 3D graphics compression open-source library.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width="710" height="399" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/x2F3-U4es1E"&gt;
&lt;/iframe&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="//www.echo3d.com"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt;’s 3D asset management platform provides developers with tools and cloud infrastructure to remotely manage, deploy, and update 3D apps, games, and content. It &lt;a href="https://www.echo3d.com/products/all-products"&gt;offers&lt;/a&gt; a 3D-first content management system (CMS) and delivery network (CDN), asset compression and conversion tools, and a scalable BaaS infrastructure that enable developers to build a 3D app backend in minutes, and then manage, process &amp;amp; stream 3D content to their 3D app or game in real-time &amp;amp; across devices. Through its partnership with Qualcomm &lt;a href="https://venturebeat.com/business/echo3d-raises-5-5m-for-cloud-authorning-tools-for-3d-ar-and-vr-content/"&gt;who previously invested in the company&lt;/a&gt;, echo3D also recently launched a new Snapdragon Spaces AR SDK integration.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With &lt;a href="https://www.echo3d.com/cloud/3d-model-compression-optimization"&gt;this new compression tool&lt;/a&gt;, developers are able to build cloud-connected 3D experiences and stream highly detailed optimized 3D models and interactive content to different devices and headsets, without compromising quality. The new echo3D ULTIMATE compression tool allows developers to build smaller apps and stream light, compressed, and poly-reduced versions of their 3D assets with improved texturing to multiple devices in different locations (even to users with slow Internet connectivity!), while maintaining the full details of their 3D experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--Om1E9jcf--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/k6vzarhmuacs6v402y5g.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--Om1E9jcf--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/k6vzarhmuacs6v402y5g.png" alt="Image description" width="800" height="388"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;“By processing 3D content in the cloud, developers are able to remotely stream fresh, yet optimized, 3D content to their apps in real time,” said Alon Grinshpoon, CEO of echo3D. “We are excited to empower our developer community with tools to process even the most complex 3D models and build lighter and fast games and apps that get users coming back for more.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.echo3d.com/signup"&gt;Check out&lt;/a&gt; the echo3D cloud platform and its new compression tools and start creating dynamic 3D experiences for any device.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;During this year's AWE USA in Santa Clara, &lt;a href="//www.echo3d.com"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; has announced the release of some exciting new features to its cloud platform for 3D asset management. Dubbed the "GitHub for 3D," echo3D's &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.com/web-console/manage-pages/content-page/version-control"&gt;new versioning tools&lt;/a&gt;, allow developers to maintain version control over their 3D content, revert to past versions of assets, and even schedule the release of future version updates, directly to their 3D experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--Wx822LxZ--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/cqjuan53enz6b6f5rvr6.gif" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--Wx822LxZ--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/cqjuan53enz6b6f5rvr6.gif" alt="Image description" width="800" height="500"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.com/web-console/manage-pages/content-page/version-control"&gt;Check out&lt;/a&gt; echo3D's new Version Control tools.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.com/web-console/manage-pages/content-page/version-control"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt;'s 3D asset management platform provides developers with tools and cloud infrastructure to remotely manage, deploy, and update 3D apps, games, and content.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width="710" height="399" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qYG_y02xcIM"&gt;
&lt;/iframe&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.com/web-console/manage-pages/content-page/version-control"&gt;these new versioning tools&lt;/a&gt;, developers are able to build dynamic 3D, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR) experiences that can change over time, without the need to rebuild or redeploy the experience. The new tools reduce development friction and allow developers to not only manage their 3D content effectively within their team or revert to past versions, but also commit &amp;amp; schedule future versions of their 3D content and update it in real-time directly to the 3D experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;"By moving their 3D assets to the cloud, developers are able to remotely stream fresh, timely 3D content to their apps in real time," said Alon Grinshpoon, CEO of echo3D. "We are excited to empower our developer community with tools to build more dynamic games and apps that get users coming back for more."&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Manage 3D Tools on the Cloud in this Woodshop Training Demo (Unity Tutorial)</title>
      <dc:creator>echo3D</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Thu, 01 Dec 2022 23:15:38 +0000</pubDate>

      <guid>https://dev.to/echo3d/manage-3d-tools-on-the-cloud-in-this-woodshop-training-demo-unity-tutorial-3o4n</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;You can use &lt;a href="http://www.unity.com/"&gt;Unity&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.echo3d.co/"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; to create smaller, scalable and dynamic 3D applications . By moving your 3D assets to the cloud, you can manage &amp;amp; stream 3D content remotely while making cross-platform updates from one console. This workflow is ideal for industrial training which often requires high resolution models and frequent updates with client input.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this Unity demo, you’re going to upload these four tools to the echo3D cloud and integrate them into the industrial training demo for a woodshop.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--TpzCJb1v--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/fffzjzqor40butw9nq6f.gif" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--TpzCJb1v--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/fffzjzqor40butw9nq6f.gif" alt="Image description" width="600" height="309"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;p&gt;Scan this QR code or click this link &lt;a href="https://go.echo3d.co/agp4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;https://go.echo3d.co/agp4&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to see a wrench in augmented reality.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--AvHtbqGX--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/nw742e3ew67jrk4rwxzs.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--AvHtbqGX--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/nw742e3ew67jrk4rwxzs.png" alt="Image description" width="527" height="518"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Setup
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Make sure to register for FREE at &lt;a href="https://console.echo3d.co/#/auth/register"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Download the &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/installation"&gt;Unity SDK&lt;/a&gt; and import it. Troubleshoot &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/troubleshooting?q=newton"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;em&gt;Note: Our new SDK supports Unity 2020.3 LTS and newer.&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Version
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive"&gt;Unity 2020.3.25 LTS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Video
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width="710" height="399" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0svtKt6GCMo"&gt;
&lt;/iframe&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Steps
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;a href="https://github.com/echo3Dco/Unity-echo3D-Demo-WoodshopTraining"&gt;Clone this repo&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Download the 3D model(s) from the Assets/Models folder in the project: Axe, Wrench, MeasuringTape and Screwdriver.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/quickstart/add-a-3d-model"&gt;Add the 3D models&lt;/a&gt; to the echo3D console.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Open the &lt;em&gt;GarageScene&lt;/em&gt; scene.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/web-console/deliver-pages/security-page"&gt;Uncheck&lt;/a&gt; the “Enable Secret Key” box in your echo3D console (For a production build, it’s best to &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/web-console/deliver-pages/security-page"&gt;add the echo3D API key&lt;/a&gt; to the echo3D.cs script so it remains secure).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/quickstart/access-the-console"&gt;Set the API key&lt;/a&gt; on the &lt;em&gt;echo3DHologram&lt;/em&gt; script using the Inspector for each object: AxeParent, WrenchParent, MeasuringTapeParent and ScrewdriverParent.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--hPM2qhTm--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/3100isf2lczurfapuh07.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--hPM2qhTm--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/3100isf2lczurfapuh07.png" alt="Image description" width="600" height="600"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--r17LYRFV--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/q07frk5068yhouqdzg27.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--r17LYRFV--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/q07frk5068yhouqdzg27.png" alt="Image description" width="396" height="165"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  We automatically checked the boxes for &lt;em&gt;Editor Preview&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Ignore Model Transforms&lt;/em&gt; so you can edit your objects live in the Scene.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--5gTmLT_u--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/yoc9851to61bjuaf8sg9.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--5gTmLT_u--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/yoc9851to61bjuaf8sg9.png" alt="Image description" width="482" height="167"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  To edit the size of the objects, go to the top menu &amp;gt; Echo3D &amp;gt; Load Editor Holograms. The tools will appear in your Game view and you can scale them down to fit the colliders of each parent object 
(ex: AxeParent, MeasuringTapeParent, etc.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  How to Play
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Open the &lt;em&gt;WelcomeScene&lt;/em&gt; scene. Press Play in Unity. Follow the instructions on the screen.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Click and hold to pick up objects, release your mouse to drop them.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>How to Use the New echo3D Unity SDK (2022 Tutorial)</title>
      <dc:creator>echo3D</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Fri, 11 Nov 2022 00:20:55 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/echo3d/how-to-use-the-new-echo3d-unity-sdk-2022-tutorial-1kkn</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/echo3d/how-to-use-the-new-echo3d-unity-sdk-2022-tutorial-1kkn</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Depending on your project size and platform, it can be challenging to update all your assets uniformly. &lt;a href="http://www.echo3d.co"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; has made it easy to do this by simply using an API key. Assets are stored on the echo3D cloud and called at runtime so your experience runs smoothly and faster, every time and everywhere.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here are 2 ways to integrate echo3D into your project. Whether you are integrating echo3D into an existing project or starting from scratch, echo3D has a 3D backend solution for you.      &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Setup
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Make sure to register for FREE at &lt;a href="https://console.echo3d.co/#/auth/register"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Install &lt;a href="https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive"&gt;Unity 2020.3.25 LTS&lt;/a&gt; (&lt;em&gt;Note: Our SDK supports Unity 2020.3 LTS and newer.&lt;/em&gt;)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Clone this &lt;a href="https://github.com/echo3Dco/Unity-echo3D-Demo"&gt;repo&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Video
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width="710" height="399" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/98bebj0g674"&gt;
&lt;/iframe&gt;
 &lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Steps
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Open the SampleScene scene.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Upload your 3D assets to the echo3D cloud by &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/quickstart/add-a-3d-model"&gt;clicking “Add to Cloud&lt;/a&gt;”. You can also &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/web-console/manage-pages/content-page/how-to-add-content"&gt;search&lt;/a&gt; our console for some.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Download the echo3D &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/installation"&gt;Unity SDK&lt;/a&gt; and unzip the folder.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/installation"&gt;Copy the &lt;em&gt;co.echo3d.unity&lt;/em&gt; subfolder into Unity’s &lt;em&gt;Packages&lt;/em&gt; folder&lt;/a&gt;. Troubleshoot &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/troubleshooting?q=newton"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. (&lt;em&gt;Note: Do not drag the subfolder directly into Unity, please use your File Explorer.)&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The echo3D Unity SDK is now ready to be used! There are 2 ways to implement it.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Option 1: If you’re integrating echo3D into an existing project&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Drag the &lt;code&gt;Echo3DHologram.cs&lt;/code&gt; script onto the game object that you want to host on the echo3D cloud.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;center&gt;![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/vwt2a55zom7ms8udo8zy.png)&lt;/center&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;On the &lt;code&gt;Echo3DHologram.cs&lt;/code&gt; script, &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/using-the-sdk"&gt;set the API key and Entry ID&lt;/a&gt; from the Inspector.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Turn off the Mesh Renderer, or else you will have duplicate 3D objects at runtime. This allows all existing modifications in the Inspector to apply to the echo3D asset.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Drag the &lt;code&gt;Echo3DService&lt;/code&gt; prefab anywhere into the Hierarchy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Option 2: If you’re starting a Unity project from scratch&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Drag both &lt;code&gt;Echo3DHologram&lt;/code&gt;and  &lt;code&gt;Echo3DService&lt;/code&gt;  prefabs into the Hierarchy from inside Packages/echo3D Unity SDK/Prefabs&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  On the &lt;code&gt;Echo3DHologram&lt;/code&gt; prefab,  &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/quickstart/access-the-console"&gt;set the API key&lt;/a&gt; and Entry ID from the Inspector.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;center&gt;![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/hpu04a77ijbg5fqwrqz8.png)&lt;/center&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;You have successfully connected the echo3D SDK! To see it in action, press Play in Unity. See below for more tools to manage your 3D asset in Unity.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;em&gt;(Optional)&lt;/em&gt; Type your &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/web-console/deliver-pages/security-page#secret-key"&gt;Secret Key&lt;/a&gt; as the value for the parameter secKey in the file Packages/co.echo3D.unity/Runtime/Echo3DHologram.cs. (&lt;em&gt;Note: Secret Key only matters if you have the&lt;/em&gt; &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/web-console/deliver-pages/security-page#secret-key"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Security Key&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;em&gt;enabled in your echo3D console.)&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;center&gt;![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/unnvmwnrvgikne2z29md.png)&lt;/center&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;em&gt;(Optional)&lt;/em&gt; To edit the assets live in your project, check the boxes for “Editor Preview” and “Ignore Model Transforms”. At the top of your project, click Echo3D &amp;gt; Load Editor Holograms&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

      <title>New SDK Features for echo3D’s Unity SDK</title>
      <dc:creator>echo3D</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Sat, 08 Oct 2022 01:24:17 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/echo3d/new-sdk-features-for-echo3ds-unity-sdk-36e</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/echo3d/new-sdk-features-for-echo3ds-unity-sdk-36e</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.echo3d.co"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; has updated its SDK for Unity with some highly requested capabilities! You can use &lt;a href="http://www.unity.com"&gt;Unity&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.echo3d.co"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; to create smaller, scalable and dynamic 3D/AR/VR applications — move your 3D assets to the cloud, manage &amp;amp; stream 3D content remotely, and publish updates easily and frequently.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here’s a quick overview of the changes. Refer to the &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/installation"&gt;documentation&lt;/a&gt; for step by step installation instructions. To test drive all the exciting new features, download the Demo scene &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/using-the-sdk#viewing-the-demo-scene"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. Download the SDK and check out the README for detailed steps on how to use each feature!  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--BYl1agGh--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/x6j1c4femuhac50czthj.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--BYl1agGh--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/x6j1c4femuhac50czthj.png" alt="Image description" width="445" height="211"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  Setup
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Make sure to register for FREE at &lt;a href="https://console.echo3d.co/#/auth/register"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Version
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive"&gt;Unity 2020.3.25 LTS&lt;/a&gt; &lt;em&gt;Note: Our new SDK supports Unity 2020.3 LTS and newer.&lt;/em&gt;    &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width="710" height="399" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hTNWUN9KZeI"&gt;
&lt;/iframe&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Changes
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Download the &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/installation"&gt;Unity SDK&lt;/a&gt; and import it. Troubleshoot &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/troubleshooting?q=newton"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;Old Way:&lt;/strong&gt; You download an SDK from Unity’s Asset store or echo3D’s console and drag it into Unity.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;New Way:&lt;/strong&gt; You will download the SDK folder and copy its contents into the project’s Packages folder. Unity will automatically import the files.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--p4zgyHwh--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/vpmk7y0enlbg7i0ol69z.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--p4zgyHwh--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/vpmk7y0enlbg7i0ol69z.png" alt="Image description" width="800" height="396"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--F85KneU3--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/lwfj5zsc6rrjx9ewiew0.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--F85KneU3--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/lwfj5zsc6rrjx9ewiew0.png" alt="Image description" width="800" height="396"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Add the echo3D prefab to the Hierarchy&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;Old Way:&lt;/strong&gt; You drag the echo3D prefab into the Hierarchy.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;New Way:&lt;/strong&gt; You add 2 items to the Hierarchy: Echo3DHologram and Echo3DService.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--uNCTdU8b--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/54ml1l469lijhumu4a1m.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--uNCTdU8b--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/54ml1l469lijhumu4a1m.png" alt="Image description" width="800" height="396"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Turn off “Remote Transformations” (Optional)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;Old Way:&lt;/strong&gt; You comment out a line of code in echo3D’s CustomBehaviour.cs script.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;New Way:&lt;/strong&gt; Remote Transformations is now a built in prefab feature. See below how you can check a box to turn it on and off.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Populate data in the echo3D prefab&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--vAeS_T2s--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/jeyyw76pfhiyh375edik.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--vAeS_T2s--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/jeyyw76pfhiyh375edik.png" alt="Image description" width="492" height="207"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;Old Way:&lt;/strong&gt; You can only add the API key, entry IDs and tags.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;New Way:&lt;/strong&gt; You can add the same items and more.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Editor Preview:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; The echo3D SDK allows for holograms to be streamed at design time (ie, before pressing Play) to aid with composing your scene.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ignore Model Transforms:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; By default, transform data baked into the model (position, rotation, scale) is applied on load. Enable this setting to ignore baked model transform data, setting all instantiated holograms to default transform values (Vector3.zero for local position, Quaternion.identity for rotation and Vector3.One for scale). The model will inherit the transform values from its parent that has the echo3DHologram.cs script attached to it.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Disable Remote Transformations:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; The echo3D script allows users to add metadata to the objects in the console. This turns that feature off so metadata is ignored.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Advanced- Query Only:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Enabling things stops the hologram from loading at runtime. The script will query specified hologram data and store it in ‘queryData’ but will not spawn the hologram.
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Advanced — Manual API Query:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;  You can define your via ‘Query URL’ with whatever request you need. The script will query the URL on Start() and store the data in the ‘queryData’ object within 
the script, stopping further activity. No hologram will appear.
&lt;em&gt;Note: &lt;code&gt;Query Only\&lt;/code&gt; must be enabled. For example, the query URL &lt;code&gt;https://api.echo3D.co/query?key=&amp;lt;API\_KEY&amp;gt;\&lt;/code&gt; would result in a list of all project holograms and their data in &lt;code&gt;queryData\&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/em&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--iwD20B0s--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/1%2A7Dd-4GmLyMKMAK8VMoANAA.jpeg" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--iwD20B0s--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/1%2A7Dd-4GmLyMKMAK8VMoANAA.jpeg" alt="" width="800" height="471"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;You can use Unity and &lt;a href="http://www.echo3d.co"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; to create smaller, scalable and dynamic 3D/AR/VR applications — move your 3D assets to the cloud, manage &amp;amp; stream 3D content remotely, and publish updates easily and frequently. There’s no need to rebuild the app and have players download an update — you can quickly and easily swap out models remotely. Simply upload the assets to the echo3D cloud and reference them with an API key.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this project, you will randomly choose a top to match these pants in Unity.&lt;/p&gt;

  Version
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive"&gt;Unity 2020.3.25 LTS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Steps
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Clone the &lt;a href="https://github.com/echo3Dco/Unity-echo3D-Demo-WhatToWear"&gt;repo here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Download and import the echo3D &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/installation"&gt;Unity SDK&lt;/a&gt;. Troubleshoot &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/unity/troubleshooting?q=newton"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Download the 3D model(s) from the Assets/Models folder in the project: Pants, Top1, Top2 and Top3.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Go to echo3D console and &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/quickstart/add-a-3d-model"&gt;click “Add to Cloud”&lt;/a&gt; and upload the models.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Open the &lt;em&gt;SampleScene&lt;/em&gt; scene.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/web-console/deliver-pages/security-page"&gt;Uncheck&lt;/a&gt; the “Enable Secret Key” box in your console or &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/web-console/deliver-pages/security-page"&gt;add the echo3D API key&lt;/a&gt; to the echo3D.cs script so the objects can appear in Unity.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/quickstart/access-the-console"&gt;Set the API key&lt;/a&gt; on the echo3D script using the Inspector for the Pants, Top1, Top2 and Top3 objects in the Hierarchy.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--XGjk0tlY--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/0%2A1F3P8TM03kQX4URX" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--XGjk0tlY--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/0%2A1F3P8TM03kQX4URX" alt="" width="720" height="705"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--V7Grrhnr--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/664/0%2AO5RZqAvK180-vALe" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--V7Grrhnr--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/664/0%2AO5RZqAvK180-vALe" alt="" width="332" height="117"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/web-console/manage-pages/data-page/how-to-add-data#adding-metadata"&gt;Add the metadata&lt;/a&gt; for the models in the echo3D console so they fit on top of the pants.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Run
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Press Play in Unity and hit Space to change tops.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Switch Out Assets (Optional)
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you want to switch out your assets remotely through the echo3D cloud, here’s how!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Find new asset in the echo3D console (You can upload your own or choose from our library)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--r4wERvlj--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1200/0%2AMOCOU-yZqFn7-TzW" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--r4wERvlj--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1200/0%2AMOCOU-yZqFn7-TzW" alt="" width="600" height="317"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Get the API key and entry ID&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--8Fp7xcRV--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/0%2AOyMrtGsBlXejyjVd" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--8Fp7xcRV--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/0%2AOyMrtGsBlXejyjVd" alt="" width="800" height="783"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Swap them out on the echo3D script in the Unity Hierarchy and see your assets change when you run in Play mode.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

      <title>Preview Art In Your Home in Augmented Reality for Free (Tutorial)</title>
      <dc:creator>echo3D</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Tue, 20 Sep 2022 22:48:43 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/echo3d/preview-art-in-your-home-in-augmented-reality-for-free-tutorial-32f6</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/echo3d/preview-art-in-your-home-in-augmented-reality-for-free-tutorial-32f6</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://WWW.ECHO3D.CO"&gt;echo3D&lt;/a&gt; offers a quick “upload and view’ feature within its console which means the user simply uploads an asset (or chooses from a library of over 75,000 free assets). Each asset has a link or QR code that they can view to see the asset &lt;br&gt;
in augmented reality. No downloads or coding needed. One of the biggest challenges of buying something online is knowing if the size and aesthetic of it will work with your current situation. Augmented reality offers a realistic solution to this!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this tutorial, we are going to upload 3 different pieces of art with accurate measurements and see what they look like on the wall. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--iuGOSmWH--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/590/1%2AGzwEeiX-7jnbxCe3ETKA-A.gif" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--iuGOSmWH--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_66%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/590/1%2AGzwEeiX-7jnbxCe3ETKA-A.gif" alt="" width="295" height="640"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Scan this QR code or click this link &lt;a href="https://go.echo3d.co/9rPz"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;https://go.echo3d.co/9rPz&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  to see this for yourself!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--HNEdkHS5--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/1%2Aoc9bAWxEzt6StdHPBFJLag.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--HNEdkHS5--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/1%2Aoc9bAWxEzt6StdHPBFJLag.png" alt="" width="800" height="687"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/center&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width="710" height="399" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0t4ZZIG1efg"&gt;
&lt;/iframe&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  Steps
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Save images of the art you are considering buying. Take note of the dimensions. These do not have to be 3D — echo3D will convert it to a 3D object automatically!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Go to echo3D console and &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/quickstart/add-a-3d-model"&gt;“Add to Cloud”&lt;/a&gt; and upload each image. You can also search in the console for a painting.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  On each asset, click on the inverted caret to edit the &lt;a href="https://docs.echo3d.co/data/what-metadata-is-stored"&gt;metadata&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--tMH_uYC9--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/758/1%2AxOxJDvHvIVB1rqs1_dnCnQ.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--tMH_uYC9--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/758/1%2AxOxJDvHvIVB1rqs1_dnCnQ.png" alt="" width="379" height="204"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Convert the dimensions to pixels and edit the Height and Width. We used this &lt;a href="https://pixelsconverter.com/inches-to-pixels"&gt;converter&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--RoKPFqgX--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/766/1%2AKKWW0_-jeCgphQ4PCKksNQ.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--RoKPFqgX--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://miro.medium.com/max/766/1%2AKKWW0_-jeCgphQ4PCKksNQ.png" alt="" width="383" height="382"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
