Design review in VR; "Live it" before you 3D print it

Hey folks,

I realize this thread may not be all that accurate, but I thought I might find some much needed smart feedback for an idea I have been working on and need desperately to "bounce off" some of you =)

I have started to develop some software which has the premise of uploading a 3D model in virtual reality and "living it" before your 3D print it. As such you would essentially have the possibility to do a sort of design review prior to going through the motions of printing it out. We already have an app / prototype and have begun to test our theory but in retrospect, I wish we had asked the following questions upfront before even beginning development:

• Would 3D printing enthusiasts be interested in software to help their "design review" process? What do feel is necessary to facilitate a design review?
• Would a virtual reality experience whereby one could "live" their design be of any value to an designer?

• What kind of features in such a virtual design platform would be most helpful to aid the design review process and reduce design errors up-front

Here is a copy of our free iPhone app (its only a test for the moment in its very early initial stage): https://itunes.apple.com/ch/app/thec...0969?l=en&mt=8

Additionally, a short youtube video which should give you an indication of what we are doing directionally: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2US3...m-upload_owner

I would really like to hear what you have to say so please let us know what you are thinking and we'll build it that way. You can contact me at hans@theconstruct.co if you like as well.

Thanks a bunch in advance!!

Cheers, Hans
