DI-Guy SDK
Realistic Human Characters for Extraordinary Visual Simulation
Super-realistic, fully-rigged, easy to control human and animal characters
DI-Guy SDK renders animated human characters into all the MAK ONE applications as well as into Image Generators from other vendors across the Modeling, Simulation & Training Industry.
Used throughout the Modeling, Simulation & Training Industry
DI-Guy Software Development Toolkit (SDK) is the engine that powers many of the best visual simulations in the industry. From the high-end image generators made by Rockwell Collins and Flight Safety to quick and dirty applications built using OpenSceneGraph and Unity, DI-Guy provides high-fidelity human characters that move realistically, respond to simple high-level commands, and travel throughout the environment as directed by the hosting visual application. DI-Guy character simulation is an integral part of all MAK ONE applications, including VR-Engage, VR-Forces, and VR-Vantage.
Natural Motion
DI-Guy characters make seamless transitions from one activity to the next, moving naturally like real people. DI-Guy’s advanced motion engine ensures that each model’s behavior is lifelike and specific to the specified task. DI-Guy automatically creates natural-looking smooth behavior for its more than 2,000 motions and transitions, even when a character changes posture from one action to the next.
High-Performance, Efficient Toolkit
Whether you are a seasoned visualization professional or just getting started, the DI-Guy SDK will simplify and speed your task of adding life-like humans and animals to real-time 3D simulations, saving you time and money. The SDK allows you to work at a high level, concentrating on telling characters where to go and what to do, while the software and content handles critical low-level details such as: joint angle control and kinematics, smooth motion generation is derived from motion capture, graphics hierarchy management, load management, and geometry and texture files.

Key Features
Ready Out-of-the-Box
A VR-TheWorld server is a fully standalone version of VR-TheWorld and can be deployed behind firewalls and security barriers.
Available Online
MAK hosts a copy of VR-TheWorld Server online for MAK ONE users to use in prototyping solutions and developing capability demonstrations.
Terabytes of Data
VR-TheWorld has over three terabytes of global elevation, imagery, and feature data — pre-tiled for high performance access.
Automatic Tiling for Performance
Large data files are automatically tiled on the server so that they can be streamed efficiently to client applications.
Add Your Own Data
VR-TheWorld Server comes with an intuitive web interface that makes uploading and organizing your data simple.
